Sidewalk Mapping for Pedestrian Navigation Workshop

Publication Information

Publication Type:
Summary Report
Publication Number:

Abstract:

This summary report’s appendix identified the need to define the role of government in this research area. It also recommended an investigation of replicable data collection methods. On October 19 and 20, 2022, the Federal Highway Administration’s Exploratory Advanced Research Program held a workshop on sidewalk mapping to complement the findings of the program’s “Mapping and Navigation for Pedestrians with Disabilities” white paper. The workshop focused on research needs for sidewalk mapping as well as the roles of various stakeholders who can impact the deployment of sidewalk mapping technologies.
