基于一项为期18个月的定性研究，其中包括设计考虑因素和原型基于位置的信息系统（LBIS）的创建和测试，这项研究提供了经验洞察到各种各样的个人的日常做法，以解决美国一个县的粮食不安全问题。定性实地调查表明，非营利组织在食品援助生态从事基于位置的信息的做法，可以通过设计LBIS增强。两种做法，将受益于一个合作的LBIS是1）匹配的做法，其中非营利工作者帮助个人谁是寻求援助的粮食资源和2）分配的做法，其中非营利工作者帮助组织获得和提供粮食资源的客户。为了支持跨组织的这种做法，本研究的合作设计部分建议LIBS应该：支持中介机构参与匹配和分配的做法的作用;提供交互式映射工具，匹配资源的需要;使组织能够控制特定数据的可见性;和文件的工作和影响。这项研究进一步表明，设计师应该探索各种各样的空间模式，必须对齐和重叠，使非营利组织的生态可能协同合作，以解决紧迫的社会需求。
Based on an 18-month qualitative study that included the creation and testing of design considerations and a prototype location-based information system (LBIS), this research provides empirical insight into the daily practices of a wide variety of individuals working to address food insecurity in one U.S. county. Qualitative fieldwork reveals that nonprofit organizations in the food assistance ecology engage in location-based information practices that could be enhanced by the design of a LBIS. Two practices that would benefit from a collaborative LBIS are 1) practices of matching in which nonprofit workers help individuals who are seeking assistance to food resources and 2) practices of distribution in which nonprofit workers help organizations access and deliver food resources to clients. In order to support such practices across organizations the cooperative design component of this research suggests that an LIBS should: support the role of intermediaries who engage in practices of matching and distribution; provide interactive mapping tools that match resources to need; enable organizations to control visibility over specific data; and document work and impact. This research further suggests that designers should explore the wide variety of spatial patterns that must align and overlap such that ecologies of nonprofit organizations might synergistically work together to address pressing social needs.
