Abstract

The creation of tools that can be used by the people in case of disaster, had been our main topic since two years ago. We created a system that generated aid links between the communities of people interconnected inside a Social Network Service. The system provides them gives the opportunity to start the relief efforts in advance and in a well organized way. As part of this platform, it is necessary the creation of a user front application. We always kept in mind that this platform should be easy to use. This may be possible with the use of a non-lingual interface with the help of a set of pictograms that should be related to the disaster field. These pictograms were collected, evaluated and animated to enhance their concept. In this paper, we will discuss about all the process that was conducted to get the set of pictograms that will be used in our user interface.
