Our online mapping solution offers markers to assist connecting you, our users to a more inclusive and accessible community.
Open MapAccessibility in the City was founded in 2016 when it was identified there was a need in the market to better support those with accessibility issues and assist by providing a mapping and navigation tool.
Our goal is for all to be empowered to easily pre-plan and navigate on the move, making decisions that will best allow our users to access the community in which they live or seek to venture in. People with accessibility issues can feel vulnerable and anxious when going to a new location and like to seek knowledge on their surroundings before arriving.
