AXS Map

You may want to try a new crowdsourced destination accessibility site. This one is call Axsmap:  


AXS Map was created with funding provided by the Nathan Cummings Foundation and the Fledgling Fund. Support was also provided by the Google Earth Outreach Developer Grants from the Google Inc. Charitable Giving Fund of the Tides Foundation. The Nathan Cummings Foundation, AXS Map's largest funder, provided $150,000 to help jumpstart the website's development. Support of new media projects like AXS Map represent a new focus, but continued commitment for the Nathan Cummings Foundation to lift-up community-based efforts that stimulate social change, amplify the voices of underrepresented communities, and champion economic justice endeavors.
