Wayfinding for People with Visual Impairment

[DerekLaw]

FYI, this is an interesting and unique Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS user story. Researchers at the University of Graz, Austria are developing and prototyping a web app called ways2see to help the visually impaired plan routes in the city. Very cool!!

They also presented their work at the Esri 2017 User Conference, some pictures below:

Enjoy!

Hi Derek,

Do you know if their web app has been released to the public? I cannot find its URL by google search.

Hi Tao,

No, the app is not available to the public. It's still in the development, prototyping phase.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tao,
