Welcome to OnWheels, a beta version app designed to facilitate the mobility of wheelchair users. This app takes advantage of the wheelchair ramps noted by the community within the city, allowing users to move safely on the sidewalks of the city and avoid obstacles.
This project was developed as a thesis for the University of Piraeus, earning a grade of 10/10. The app utilizes GeoHashing to work with millions of Google Maps pings, without reducing its performance on the database (Firebase Realtime Database) and the device.
- Accessible map views for wheelchair users
- Real-time navigation and route optimization
- Community-sourced data on accessible locations
- Integration with Google Maps and Firebase Realtime Database
To use OnWheels, fork your own copy of the code repository from AchillesKastanas/OnWheels-Maps-for-Wheelchair-Users-Beta.
