Summary of Issue: Geospatial mapping applications
Comment (Including rationale for any proposed change):
Are there any inclusions / exclusions in the new guidelines that identify accessibility requirements for geospatial mapping web applications, similar to Google Maps? The Government Agency I work for, Geoscience Australia, produces many applications of this type and I would like to know what effect we will have if we adopt these guidelines. An example of a particular mapping application we host can be viewed at
