Topiary

A Tool for Prototyping Location-Enhanced Applications

Location-enhanced applications make use of the location of people, places, and things to provide useful services. We see an increasing number of location-enhanced applications, particularly on mobile devices.
Topiary allows designers to quickly prototype location-enhanced applications using high-level abstractions such as maps, scenarios and storyboards, and test these application prototypes with real users in the field without having to deploy a location infrastructure.
