The object of this study is to offer domestic and overseas travel informations efficiently for domestic tourists growing far beyond 15 million even now through user centered interface more convenient and accurate. In a method of research, 100 people were surveyed after recasting of evaluation questionnaire about UI design using 5-point Likert and nominal scale and additionally, the in-depth interviews were given to 10 people who use travel application frequently. In consequence, this interview revealed where users feel convenience and difficulty and want improvement of usability, information accuracy, etc. Finally, this study has a meaning to suggest new UI prototypes and various guideline about additional UI design on the basis of surveyed parts.

본 연구는 최근 1500만 명을 훨씬 넘어 현재에도 빠르게 상승 중인 국내의 여행객들에게 보다 정확하고 편리한 사용자 중심의 User Interface를 통해 효율적으로 국내 및 해외여행 정보를 제공하는 데 목적이 있다. 연구 방법으로는 5점 리커르트(Llkert) 척도 및 명목척도를 사용하여 UI 디자인에 관한 평가 설문지를 재구성한 뒤, 총 100명을 대상으로 조사하고 추가로 여행 애플리케이션을 자주 사용하는 10명에게 심층인터뷰를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 사용자들이 사용성, 정보정확성 등의 어느 부분에서 편리함 및 어려움을 느끼고, 개선되기를 바라고 있는지 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 본 연구는 조사한 부분들을 바탕으로 새로운 UI 프로토타입과 추가적인 UI디자인에 대한 다양한 가이드라인을 제시하는 데 그 의의가 있다.
