An important milestone in the “ReGLaN-Health & Logistics” project is the development of an application for digital devices delivering early warning and decision support tailored to different user groups using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that adapts to the user for the optimisation of the health service delivery in rural areas in South Africa.

Mathematical modelling of Geographic Information System (GIS)-tailored GUI design, with the application of spatial fuzzy logic, results from these requirements. In this context, a generative mathematical structure for a system adapting a GUI to a user was developed. The system responds to the user with automatic adaptivity and suggestions for adaption, which is similar to the method of behavioural targeting. To enable the system to provide an appropriate GUI and thus appropriate decision support, situative analysis has to be included.
In order to adapt the GUI to South African conditions it is important to determine an initial state for the GUI. Using an empirical pilot study carried out in Germany, a generic basal concept for the structure of further empirical studies to be performed in South Africa was developed. Certain GUI elements are supposed to be evaluated by empirical studies carried out in South Africa with regard to adaptivity, comprehensibility, conceiving the spatial sense and benefit for the user, among others.
