[Accessibility] Accessibility Digest, Vol 40, Issue 1

[Mari Laakso]

Nice work Jean-Louis,

I have been working on mapping the accessibility of physical 
environments. You might be interested to see the work done in HaptiMap 
project (http://www.haptimap.org/). I am not too familiar with OSM tags 
but we suggested few new ones based on the experiences gained within the 
project, see below. Some of them might already be implemented?

Good luck and hope to hear the future progress of your work.
BR,
Mari LAAKSO

Proposal of new tags to OSM.(in page 65 of HaptiMap deliverable
