Patch

A platform for storing and sharing information about public places for differently-abled people.

The problem Patch solves

Presently a lot of info on a map-based platform is available regarding data on buildings, offices, parts, hotels, etc. But today, however, a differently-abled person is still unable to browse and identify nearby or specific locations having PWD-friendly features on such platforms. Although some existing platforms like Google maps, etc have indirect symbolization of PWD friendly spaces, still none mention available or unavailable features. So retracing back to our theme of Aatmanirbhar Bharat, we have created a centralised portal focusing on storing and sharing of this information where the physical location information of provisions accessibility features can be displayed to the needed via the owners themselves after registering. This is specified to regional spaces and places of India and the respective features will be displayed on the map and thus differently-abled people can accordingly choose the location they want to travel to making use of this system/portal as their guide

Challenges we ran into

We had problems with integrating the app with google maps which was our plan earlier. but then after noticing the time we had in our hands we improvised and planned on building the platform without it. We also had a problem hosting our website .
