Sure I will @ErmesT @. Our community is active on this front
Our dear King @EmekaUlor is the founder of One Accessibility, and the very first Accessibility champion I knew on Connect lives in Lagos. I will surely add when you launch yours

Hi @ErmesT ,
this is a wonderful project, seriously and literally speaking!
I know you have been working continuously on the topic and I’m very very happy to see the results of your superb efforts and work around it. Google Earth is a great tool and using it in this way is fantastic.
Thank you for presenting us the project and for all the efforts in it, looking forward seeing the next steps

The Cortellazzo pathway is a place we will have to check as soon we can travel again, @AntonellaGr .
It was very bad to find that it had been destroyed by the storm.
As soon as possible we will go together to check if she has been restored, and we will put her in Accessible Life

Great @Ewaade_3A
@EmekaUlor is a friend, as well as a promoter of great accessibility initiatives, so I believe he will be happy to have an extra arrow to throw in his battle to improve accessibility.
On the photo below he’s (in the center of the photo) with the CM group, for the official group photo of MIB (Mod In Black [jacket] ).
I miss that day

Te agradezco tus palabras, @fernando61 , y te correspondo el saludo desde Italia.
¿Qué piensas, hay parques u otros lugares al aire libre en Saltillo que te gustaría agregar a Accesible Life?
¿Alguna vez ha utilizado Google My Maps?
Puedes ser el primero en agregar un lugar en México, siempre que @LaloPadilla o @Imperiospice o @LightRich no lo hagan más rápido

Jajajaj, por supuesto que nosotros seremos parte del proyecto @ErmesT !
Así que ya tengo en mente un par de lugares para agregar. Solamente indícame cual es el siguiente paso pues en México estamos super atrasados en el tema y hay muchísimo que hacer en cuanto accesibilidad en todo tipo de lugares. Me interesa ademas promoverlo en la comunidad de LG de mi pais porque tenemos que empezar en algun momento, y el mejor momento es ahora.
En forma personal también dimensioné lo importante que es el tema a finales de 2019, pues estuve apoyando a una de mis primas cuando su madre (mi tía) tuvo problemas de salud importantes y debíamos movilizarla en una silla de ruedas para visitar médicos y laboratorios. Incluso muchos de esos lugares no tienen características de accesibilidad y es muy frustrante. No te digo más sobre la situación de banquetas o avenidas, donde en la mayoría de los casos no hay espacio para que un peatón en condiciones de movilidad habitual pueda desplazarse.
Entonces solo esperamos luz verde y las primeras sesiones con indicaciones especificas para comenzar a mapear las zonas exteriores accesibles para el proyecto Accesible Life

Indeed @ErmesT , I’m sure the best still needs to come .
Yes I have played some times with Google Earth and the new stories, not created a real project but just playing around for interests. I do have also a friend in my office who uses it to build geophysics measurements he does with professional instruments on his jobs (he is a geophysics), another very interesting use.

Google Earth is a powerful tool @LuigiZ , and writing stories is the “light part” of the program, even if it is extremely exciting if you want to explore the world.
Climate analysis is one of the interesting applications, and a lot of Universities use Google Earth.
If you haven’t already, you should check Google Earth Outreach and all the tools available.
What we all have in common is the aim to help others, and Google Earth team (yup, I had the opportunity to meet virtually some of them) is amazing, passionate and helpful.
Stay tuned, the best part is coming soon

@ErmesT this is a great project which of course, I have keenly followed since you mentioned it.
I’d surely want to see the outcome.
@Ewaade_3A Ernest is Guiding light for many LGs and he has passion for accessibility too. We have shared ideas during Connect Live about accessibility.

I will just be feeling proud everytime you say my name. I am so proud of you! I know you don’t know
We are close to fix a day for the live streaming (probably in a Sunday before mid of April).
Some Local Guide had an early access ( 
don’t tell anybody) and they are actually creating some accessible place in my Maps, while some other have discovered the link to the project (oops).
I am sure I have seen something in Instagram

Hi @ErmesT !
Congratulations for the initiative and for all the work behind it, which I imagine is truly immense for a project of this level!
I can’t wait for these limitations caused by Covid-19 to disappear, so I will be free to move and go and check the accessibility of the Vicenza monuments that I will then be happy to share in your project!
A hug ,
David

Muy buen proyecto @ErmesT claro que me gustaría participar. Día a día aprendo más a mejorar mis contribuciones sobre accesibilidad en Maps, ya sea con fotos ó reviews. He usado un poco Google Earth, sólo para investigar su uso creé algún proyecto basado en lugares que conocí en mis viajes.
Estaré atenta a nueva publicación con los pasos a seguir.
Saludos.
Silvy.
