We are developing a planning support system for welfare urban design. If we quantify the optimal route (the route that is the easiest to pass through) for challenged people, we will be able to select the areas that require adjustment in terms of accessibility with greater efficiency. In this paper we report on our development of the prototype system to present an optimal route for wheelchair users, and also, the two workshops we had for evaluating the accuracy of the resulted optimal route.
This paper aims to propose our study of system model design for a Web 3D disabled access GIS. The disabled access GIS provides the disabled with information on barriers and barrier-free modifications in consideration of their abilities and psychologies. We model the system for web-based accesses. It enhances its reusability and mash-up capability. Our model clearly divides database access, server-side service and client-side user interface. We implemented desktop client and mobile phone client to examine the model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
