UniMaps at the ICCHP-AAATE 2022

Published on 20. July 2022

From July 11-15, 2022, ZAB participated in the Joint International Conference on Digital Inclusion, Assistive Technology & Accessibility in Lecco, Italy. Lecco brought together researchers and practitioners in the field of assistive technology and accessibility.  On the topic "Digital solutions for inclusive mobility: solutions and accessible maps for indoor and outdoor mobility", Dustin Matzel presented a paper on the app UniMaps for accessible campus navigation. Mr. Matzel explained in particular the development process: students themselves are involved in the ongoing development of UniMaps and can thus directly adapt the app to their needs. Furthermore, possible problems with digital map generation, indoor navigation and accessible map display in the app and their solution in UniMaps were pointed out.
