This is a creative way to encourage local guides add more accessibility information on the map. Kudos @ShafiulB !
@MortenSI from varying information and posts by #oneaccessibility team members, there seems to be alot of of work going on across the world. Like Traci once stated it is slow and we hope our advocacy quickens the compliance worldwide.
@ErmesT your photo depicts what most parks, gardens and public places should look like but there are appropriate accessible trails for a given location. For sustainablility issues, country and organization may prefer natural or artificil pavings. Cost and policy also plays a role. Accessibility Uncovered posts gives some insight around the topics. Look out for more articles on accessibility issues.
Lets keep guiding and helping to made the world accessible for all!

I have been adding parking lots with beach access to Google Maps. I have tried to make sure I have included pictures and information that would help folks with disabilities find access and the opportunity to enjoy our local beaches. I hope I have been helpful.

こんにちは、 @ShafiulB 。とても興味深い提案をありがとうございます。私もこのコンテストに参加したいと思いましたが、マップへ投稿した写真が削除されました。理由はわかりません。でも、珍しい筐体なのでここで紹介したいと思います。
かながわ県民センター
これは飲料の自動販売機です。通常、日本で見ることのできる自動販売機は屋外に設置されているため、紙幣投入口や飲料取り出し口には雨水が入らないようにフラップ型のカバーが付いていて、表面はなるべく平らであるように設計されています。ですが、この屋内設置の機械は硬貨投入口とおつり取り出し口に黄色い受け皿があります。紙幣投入口には小さな白い棚が付いていて、紙幣を置き奥へ滑らせて入れることができます。さらに商品取り出し口のカバーは自動で開きます。一番上の商品ボタンに手が届かない場合はどうしますか？商品見本が並ぶ窓の下に、上の段に対応した番号のボタンが並んでいるので、それで選択できます。
日本には数十年前から自動販売機が街なかに並んでいましたが、私がこのタイプの機械を見たのは一昨年あたり｡健常者には便利な機械も、車椅子ユーザーには不便な物も有ると気づくきっかけになりました。
