Re: [AI] Need information regarding braille or accessible maps
Hi all, has anybody ever used 3D maps which are embossed and are available at bharat educational store, jandavala, delhi. are they properly accessible? or are worth purchasing? thanks Jyoti Malik On 5/30/13, Pranav Lal pranav@gmail.com wrote: Hi Jyoti, I have recently heard of a NGO called Esha that can create maps.

Re: [AI] Need information regarding braille or accessible maps
Hi I don’t know, how useful it might be to you, but I will share a personal experience in dealing with maps to understand Geography. In the beginning, when I started to understand maps, we actually enlarged maps first. Secondly we put a thread on the maps, so that I could, with the help of my fingers understand which state was located where on the map, for example, Jamu and Kashmir is the first state that is located on the map of India. This basically helped in understanding the area and in distinguishing one state from the other while marking it. However, you must note, that I used it only for understanding maps and as you said, the Geography. This was never used for testing me on maps. AICB, Gurh Gaon School also has some good embossed maps that they use for explaining their students.
