WERDEN SIE EINE BARRIEREFREIE STADT
FÜR MENSCHEN MIT BEHINDERUNG!

Es handelt sich um eine einzigartige Barrierefreiheits-App. Sie ist allein für ein barrierefreies Navigieren innerhalb einer Stadt oder einer Kommune entwickelt worden. Insbesondere für Touristen, die die Stadt nicht kennen, ist Barrierefreiheit ein heißes Thema. da eine zunehmende Zahl von Menschen mit Behinderungen über die Schwierigkeiten berichten, auf die sie stoßen, wenn sie sich innerhalb Ihrer Stadt bewegen oder andere Städte besuchen. Trotz Applikationen wie Google Maps ist es unglaublich schwer, eine gut zugängliche Route zu planen, die für Rollstuhlfahrer oder Menschen, die zu Fuß unterwegs sind, passt. Hier löst unsere App das Problem.

About-us Contact

Sie hilft den Kommunen, Barrierefreiheitsgesetze wie etwa das „European Accessibility Act“ (Europäische Barrierefreiheitsgesetz) und das „Americans with Disabilities Act“ (Gesetz für Amerikaner mit Behinderungen) verstärkt einzuhalten.

Die App zeichnet sich durch ein einzigartiges hybrides Navigationssystem aus, das einen GPS-ähnlichen Stadtplan und einen ausgeklügelten Routenplaner mit ausführlichen Angaben zu jedem Ziel enthält. Das bedeutet zum Beispiel, dass ein Rollstuhlfahrer nur rollstuhlbefahrbare Routen sowie den kürzesten und bequemsten Weg zwischen allen Zielen zu sehen bekommt. Nutzerinnen und Nutzer haben die Möglichkeit, ein direktes Feedback zur Barrierefreiheit der geplanten Routen zu geben. Die Feedbacks unterstützen so weitere Nutzer, die von ihnen besuchten Orte und Geschäfte aufzusuchen, sowie die Kommune als Ganzes zur Optimierung der Barrierefreiheit. Die App ist natürlich in allen wichtigen Sprachen verfügbar, wobei wir immer weitere hinzufügen. Unsere Plattform wurde bereits in Jerusalem, Israel, getestet und angewandt.

An interactive map of the accessible roads in the city

The map appears upon opening the application and serves as a very simple and friendly interface. On the map, one sees his or her own location and all of the accessible streets and accessible nearby passages.

Information about accessible sites

The app allows for selection of categories, and information is provided for each category. For example, by selecting a category of tourist sites, the map will show the locations of tourist attractions, a brief explanation of each attraction, and how to navigate there.

Navigating to a specific site

The user can requesting navigation via the shortest accessible route to any site on the map.

Navigating to multiple sites

The app allows for creation of the shortest accessible route to multiple attractions.

Languages

The app serves local residents and tourists and is offered in multiple languages.

Have you made information on accessible streets and roadways available for the handicapped public?

Even though we are aware of the needs of disabled people and invest in large and expensive projects to make roads accessible for them, there is still no real solution for a person with disabilities, when they want to get around. If the user is not familiar with the entire map of the city and do not know exactly which streets are accessible and which are not, he or she will waste precious energy going back and forth to reach the destination.

Why is investing in infrastructure not enough?

Investment in infrastructure for people with disabilities is very important, but it might go to waste if the disabled public does not know how to use it. Today, the disabled population has no possibility of planning a route on accessible roads. The existing solutions for the general public are not suitable for disabled people because many roads are full of obstacles and barriers such as steep stairs and bumps. A more serious problem occurs when planning a trip in a city that includes a number of attractions. It is almost impossible to plan ahead since a disabled person cannot find out if there is an accessible route leading from one attraction to another. If there is such a route, they cannot locate it.

Why can’t people with disabilities use existing solutions?

Even if the municipality has a GIS map and there is a layer of accessible streets (most cities do not have that yet), there is still no simple and convenient solution for immediate use in the form of live navigation. Using GIS maps requires early user planning, the user needs to understand how to work with GIS maps, and there are many difficulties regarding its use.

What do we offer?

We offer each city an application and a designated site, or an add-on to an existing application and add-on to an existing site, that will provide a complete solution to the problem of immediate and available navigation to residents and tourists of the city, including disabled, elderly and even young families with baby strollers. The application shows the road map in tourist areas, a list of tourist attractions, and the route to a specific attraction. It also provides the option to plan a trip between several tourist attractions and creates an optimized accessible route between the different points.

Some Cool Stuff

In what is the unique technological solution of the app?

Since the map providers (like GOOGLE) do not allow live navigation in selective ways, we had to create a unique GIS server for the system. The map is interactive and connected to GPS data on mobile devices.

Are we a sole provider of the solution?

Our up to date research has yielded no results of other tools or apps that provide a similar solution.

Some Cool Stuff

Why is this the simplest solution for the user?

In the app, everything appears in a click. In the background you'll find the map of the tourist areas and the list of tourist sites. You will be able to find a route to a specific site or plan a trip to a number of tourist sites and find the shortest accessible route between the points.
