【實用社交app】Social navigator|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

“Social Navigator” is a mobile route planning service adapted for abilities of persons with various restrictions. Standard navigation solutions for mobile devices are not friendly enough for persons with disabilities because they provide uniform solution without taking into account disability restrictions. “Social navigator” is able to make journey planning considering individual restrictions of a person. In addition to the journey planning, the service will provide functionality for collecting user feedback regarding conditions of a route.

The information collected by “Social navigator” can also be forwarded to relevant authorities to help fixing problems as soon as possible, or at least to inform other users. Using traces of real trips, the service will enable a better planning of next journeys, e.g. by using the actual travel time for the person with given restrictions. By analyzing trip planning requests the service will discover travel bottlenecks, i.e., unfriendly areas for persons with disabilities that result in most inconveniences, e.g., need to take longer alternative routes. Such information could also be summarized and provided to relevant authorities to help improving the infrastructure for persons with disabilities in the most demanded areas.

This application is a part of grant KA432 of Karelia ENPI CBC programme, which is co-funded by the European Union, the Russian Federation and the Republic of Finland.
