“Equity and inclusion are key principles we value here at council and in our community, which is why this project was essential in identifying accessible routes suitable for everyone. Categorising clear routes minimises mobility difficulties and allows the user to make informed choices before visiting locations across the Sunshine Coast. Mobility Map are important for the region to promote activity, provide mobility options and encourage visitation to our coastal areas.”

“We commissioned inclusive mapping in three areas to understand the needs of people with disability who use walking infrastructure such as footpaths and pedestrian crossings. The information provides planners with detailed information for preparing walking networks that meet the needs of all users”.

Briometrix provided extensive data and fresh insights on the current path network in the study area. This helped more fully understand the lived experience of wheelchair users and ensure that solutions directly increased access and mobility for people of all ages and abilities. Briometrix were flexible, positive and great to work with.

It was fantastic working with the Briometrix team. They worked collaboratively with us to align their survey with our work and went above & beyond to share their findings in a short timeframe. Their survey outputs were mapped in an easy-to-use online platform. The data identified key gaps and barriers in the path network, which directly helped us to develop a works program for the area.

“New Year’s Eve is one of the biggest annual celebrations in the world.  It’s so important that everyone gets the chance to come into the city and experience it, and that’s what this new colour coded Effort mapping service will help to enable.   We’re committed to making Sydney inclusive and accessible for residents and visitors from around the world.”

“The map is a fantastic outcome – the datasets show where Council can improve the pathway network and accessibility for the benefit of the entire community.   And will allow residents to have a positive experience travelling to major destinations within the CBD. The map wouldn’t have been possible without the dedicated wheelchair pilots, who were instrumental in completing the Mobility Map and ranking the difficulty levels of different areas of the CBD.”

“IndyGo works to better understand any potential pathway barriers for Indianapolis residents to reach IndyGo transit service.  Briometrix data provides a highly detailed, actionable set of data for transportation professionals in removing barriers for residents. The data captured are helpful not just for transit planners, but for public works professionals looking to improve the built environment for all users.”
