Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study the mainstreaming of accessibility information is discussed through comparisons between 74 detailed interviews with wheelchair users about collecting accessibility information and contents of parks public relations. Our results showed the mobility impaired peoples information was very sensitive to official information and the reviews with attribute. On the other hand, reviews without attribute and wheelchair accessibility maps were not referenced. The photo interpretation and public domain of reviews are effective tools for mainstreaming of accessibility information.
