Curb Ramp Project Plan
Web based application to collect observations about curb ramp condition, slope and existence. Application is preloaded with a model of predicted curb ramp locations. Neighborhood wide surveys (hundreds of intersections) can be completed in a few weeks by small groups of volunteers. Citywide surveys (tens of thousands of intersections) can be complete in less than one year. Field work will be either crowd-sourced or done by community groups and non profits who are able to train and pay interns.
- GIS Jammer created walkway model- sidewalks, “streetwalks”, and crosswalks.
- Bing Map aerial base layer at
- OpenStreetmap base layer for regional views
- Walkway- sidewalks, crosswalks, streetwalks (suggested by Katie)
- Openlayers
- Javascript
- Jquery
- Cartodb- sql database
- ESRI Arc Map to create walkway model
- GIS Jammer ESRI Addin which builds the walkway model
- Database management- logins (a later phase)
- Portland Bureau of Transportation: Paul Cone, Chon Wong, Clay Veka
- Experts in Assessing Accessible Transportation- Chuck Frayer
A city-wide survey to add curb ramp information to a model of a walkway network. The survey makes some assumptions and does not do a complete ADA assessment. In early phases, during testing, data will be collected by trained volunteers. Later, if funding is available, some data collection will be completed by paid interns.
- Where- City wide
- How long- Complete Survey within 6 month
- Test in Lloyd TMA
- Test in South East Portland, Foster-Powell
