Pedesting App
The Pedesting app is a navigation tool designed to provide accessible outside and indoor wayfinding for all pedestrians. It identifies amenities and points of interests such as elevators or escalators, retail stores, meeting rooms, accessible washrooms, etc. Pedesting caters to a wide range of users, including Pedestrians who walk or use a mobility device such as a walker or wheelchair, people with vision loss and parents with strollers.
Pedesting enhances the ease of moving through spaces, fostering inclusive and barrier-free environments for all pedestrians.
What is a Pedesting Zone?
Pedesting zones are areas in the urban environment that are part of the Pedesting platform. A Pedesting Zone can be an exterior space such as C train station, a sidewalk, or a park. A Pedesting Zone can also be an interior space where the floor plans of the building are illustrated on our basemaps of the city.
Floor plans are verified by the Pedesting team to ensure that Pedesting provides trustworthy routing.
