The problem:
People in wheelchairs don't know which destinations are wheelchair-accessible.
Project for:
- web
- Android
- iPhone
Apps for mobile devices should be similar to FourSquare and gowalla in that you check into to specific venues.
Collect GPS coordinates with images of:
- curb cuts
- elevators
- inclines
- rough terrain
- edges (almost curbs)
- roll (sidewalks)
- steps (potential hazard)
- handicapped parking spaces (van accessible, non-van, width of hash marks)
- ditches
Have information about:
- Event seating (e.g. contact info and auditorium layouts)
Display and allow users to contribute routes. (even compete for optimal routes) Display accessible bus routes (optional - since some don't use buses)
Ping users to verify data collected at their current location.
