A context-aware system for personalized and accessible pedestrian paths

This work presents mPASS (mobile Pervasive Accessibility Social Sensing), a social and ubiquitous context aware system to provide users with personalized and accessible pedestrian paths and maps. In order to collect a complete data set, our system gathers information from different sources: sensing, crowdsourcing and data produced by local authors and disability organizations. Gathered information are tailored to user´s needs and preferences on the basis of his/her context, defined by his/her location, his/her profile and quality of data about the personalized path. To support the effectiveness of our approach, we have developed a prototype, which is described in this paper, together with some results of the context-based adaptation.
