Research On APP Interface Design Of Hexigten Global Geopark Of China From The Perspective Of Popular Science Tourism

Hexigten Global Geopark has a unique geological and cultural landscape.To preserve and publicize rare geological relics for a long period it is necessary to use popular science tourism to develop the Hexigten Global Geopark.Through the research on the combination of popular science tourism and APP interface design in Hexigten Global Geopark,the purpose of promoting tourism publicity and the dissemination of geoscience popularization knowledge is achieved.To grasp the research status from three aspects: Hexigten Global Geopark,Geopark popular science tourism,and popular science tourism APP interface design.Four kinds of geological science resources are sorted out through the general summary of Hexigten Global Geopark and popular science tourism and the information on popular science tourism resources,at the same time,it also analyzes the problems existing in the development of popular science tourism in Hexigten Global Geopark and solves the above problems through the research on the APP interface design.Through constructing the theory of interface design of popular science tourism APP in Geopark to establish structure framework of APP which includes tourism orientation,popular science education,and user experience.In addition,through the interface design principles of unity,visibility,and guidance,use the simplified method,fusion method and subtraction method of visual design method design practice.In the interface design of the Hexigten Global Geopark APP,the interface structure was created and the visual specifications were determined,and the design and expression were carried out from three perspectives of color,icon and illustration,with the mix of characteristics of popular science tourism resources were integrated to enhance the public's understanding of popular science and assist geoscience knowledge popularization activities.Besides,through the research on the APP interface design of the Hexigten Global Geopark,the author hopes that the research will provide research ideas for the design of the APP interface for domestic geoparks related to popular science tourism.
