Make location-based platforms more inclusive with Geolancer's data

Accessible urban spaces allow disabled individuals to leverage public services, enjoy equal opportunities, and maintain independence. Navigating inaccessible areas can be challenging and frustrating, potentially leading to a loss of autonomy and a sense of disempowerment. Enhancing technology platforms with adequate accessibility data supports disabled people's participation in economic activities, empowering them further.
