Accessibility option on Google Maps
On Thursday, Google made an announcement, in a blog post, that they have "a new initiative that will help people with disabilities find more accessible destinations through Google Maps."
So, Google has made a setting where users can add whether or not a location is accessible.
A representatives from google made this statement:
“Many of us take for granted simple things like walking through a doorway, taking the stairs to the next floor, or always having a comfortable seat at a restaurant table, but for tens of millions of people worldwide, those very things aren’t possible unless a place has a wheelchair accessible entrance, elevator or accessible seating.”
If you use Google Maps, you can add information to let others know if destination is: wheelchair-accessible entrance, has an elevator, seating or parking.
"So far, accessibility information has been added to over 7 million locations."
The world is recognizing accessibility as a standard ! This is great news for the disability community.
