About this project

Mobile-only site - Your Outdoors is an interactive location based game designed to encourage people to go outdoors and explore their local area. It offers the user challenges in the form of a photograph, displaying a distinctive landmark or feature in their area. To complete the challenge they have to locate the feature and identify the spot the photograph was taken from. Users are awarded points when they complete challenges and can compare their progress with other users. It's easy to explore the world through photographs on our phone without experiencing the places we're looking at first hand. This means we don't get the benefits provided by being in green/blue spaces, from the physical activity of walking, and vitamin D from being out on summer days. With Your Outdoors, you can find beautiful and interesting places in your neighbourhood with the added motivation of upping your position on the leaderboard, helping to motivate users to enjoy what they see in photographs in person.
