RE: Good Accessible GPS?
The key thing about BlindSquare is while it is excellent for some things, it is not a true GPS app itself. If you want a route to some place, you can use BlindSquare to look that place up and speak the amount of Points of Interest along the way, but it will launch either Google Maps, Apple Maps and I think now GoodMaps Outdoors. Whichever ones you have installed, you can choose that one and let BlindSquare give more information than perhaps what Google Maps or Apple Maps gives automatically. I don’t think you would want both BlindSquare and GoodMaps Outdoors talking over each other as GoodMaps has many of the same features as BlindSquare.

RE: Nearby Explorer, Goodmaps, and GPS in General
Here is the text from a GoodMaps Outdoors press release from today: GoodMaps is excited to announce the release of GoodMaps Outdoors v5. This new version boasts the incorporation of 3D audio announcements, improved accuracy, and the inclusion of navigational shortcuts. “It’s exciting to see a much-appreciated feature of Soundscape incorporated into GoodMaps Outdoors, becoming a further milestone in its evolution. I hope sponsors will enable even more features to be added to this powerful outdoor navigation application in the future.” – Mike May, Sendero founder * When Microsoft Research announced it was sunsetting its Soundscape suite, users asked if it would be possible to incorporate similar functionality into GoodMaps Outdoors – which is why GoodMaps is delighted to announce the first version of an all-new feature. * GoodMaps Outdoors’ integrated speech shortcut is as simple (and as powerful) as saying: “Create a route using GoodMaps Outdoors”. * The latest version also features its most accurate positioning ever (in both iOS and Android apps), improving its ability to pinpoint addresses and points of interest considerably. “It is wonderful to see the cumulation of 20+ years of development, understanding, and feedback come to fruition and help provide independence for so many people.” – Neil Barnfather, GoodMaps CCO For more information, visit: <https://goodmaps.com/apps/good-maps-outdoors> goodmaps.com/apps/good-maps-outdoors Richard, USA. “Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.” -- Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe My web site: <https://www.turner42.com> https://www.turner42.com From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2023 10:07 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Nearby Explorer, Goodmaps, and GPS in General GoodMaps is what used to be Sendero GPS, or Seeing Eye GPS as it became known.

RE: About GPS systems and their accuracy
Sieghard, As always, thanks for an excellent post with well-documented source material regarding GPS. Alan Lemly From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2023 12:50 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: About GPS systems and their accuracy For those who didn't read the thread about the "Differences in iPhone 14 models" here again what I posted regarding GPS accuracy. I wrote this in reply to a statement Kelly made about having heard that the iPhone 15 Pro may have 1 inch GPS accuracy. In particular he said "it may also have dual channel satellite navigation, giving location data as accurate as an inch compared to the 20 feet single channel offers" One inch accuracy is very difficult to achieve especially in cities between tall buildings and while a measurement over a long period of time may result in extremely high accuracy, most consumer devices cannot do this in most applications or without the euse of additional "augmentation systems <https://www.gps.gov/systems/augmentations/#:~:text=A%20GPS%20augmentation%20is%20any,the%20public%20and%20private%20sectors.> ", here the definition of what that is: A GPS augmentation is any system that aids GPS by providing accuracy, integrity, availability, or any other improvement to positioning, navigation, and timing that is not inherently part of GPS itself. Another article I read says this "Yes, there are GPS systems that can measure locations with accuracy up to 1 inch. These systems are known as Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) GPS systems. They use a fixed base station and a mobile receiver to calculate highly accurate positions." And here a page from the US government website about GPS accuracy <https://www.gps.gov/systems/gps/performance/accuracy/> , one highlight here is this: It will depend on the quality of your equipment, how many satellites are visible and processing in your equipment and the quality of the GPS signals (direct, reflection, interference). As measured by the Air Force that runs the GPS program, the error across the entire constellation of satellites was 2.1 feet, 95% of the time on 20 April 2021. Also, I hear sometimes people say the US government deliverately makes the GPS system less accurate; this is not true as of over 20 years ago, specifically in 2000 then President Bill Clinton put a stop to the so-called "selective availabbility" which was used throughout the 90's globally to make GPS signals for civilian use less accurate. On the GPS website it says " The United States has no intent to ever use Selective Availability again.". What Kelly referred to as "dual channel satellite navigation is technically called "dual frequency" or "multi band" and many of the newer Garmin GPS's including some of Garmin's watches already have this. Here an excerpt from an explanation from the Garmin website: What is Dual Frequency/Multi-Band GPS? Dual-frequency or "Multi-Band" systems use multiple frequency bands and allow for more consistent tracklogs and improved positioning when using the device in challenging environments. This means the receiver tracks more than one radio signal from each satellite on different frequencies, which can reduce errors caused by environmental interference. What Advantages Do Multi-Band Devices Have Over Other Models? • More consistent tracklogs and improved positioning when using the device in challenging environments (e.g. around tall buildings in urban canyons as well as tree cover) • Can achieve accuracy within about +/- 2 meters or 6 feet under ideal conditions versus the +/- 3 meters or 10 feet accuracy of other models • Detect (and reject) reflected satellite signals better than a single frequency receiver which improves accuracy • Better equipped to account for and correct errors that can be introduced by atmospheric effects (e.g. ionosphere errors) NOTE: Multi-GNSS satellite systems include GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, BeiDou, and IRNSS (NavIC). Some satellite systems are not available in all areas of the globe. For more details, see https://www.gps.gov/systems/gnss/ I am sure the iPhone 15 Pro will undoubtedly be a fantastic device, but it seems Apple is differenciating the Pro models more and more from the regular models and then we have rumours of an iPhone 15 Ultra although I also read that this may possibly what Apple will call the iPhone 15 Pro Max and they will give it even more features or make it tougher than the regular iPhone 15 Pro. I guess we have to wait and see, but don't hold your breath that any iPhone in the near future will give you 1 inch GPS accuracy especially not in the places where most people live like cities with tall buildings and many sources of potential interference.

For Immediate Release GoodMaps Continues to Provide Enhanced Wayfinding thru Partnerships with Intel, Mapping UK Stations and Stores LOUISVILLE, Ky. (February 21, 2022) – GoodMaps, born out of American Printing House for the Blind (APH), continues to create innovative wayfinding experiences for the visually impaired. With a recently announced partnership with Intel, expansion of wayfinding through UK train stations and grocery stores, an acquisition of Sendero GPS, the beginning of APH GoodMaps Education and the start of the 2022 Smart Cities project with APH. As part of the Intel RISE Technology Initiative (IRTI), GoodMaps is collaborating with Intel to deliver a high-quality indoor wayfinding solution for all, with special emphasis on improving indoor navigation for people including those who are blind or low vision, mobility impaired, and deaf or hard of hearing. With GoodMaps technology people can safely, effectively and easily navigate indoor spaces resulting in greater independence when traveling. In the United Kingdom, GoodMaps has revolutionized the way passengers' access, utilize, and travel throughout railway stations, due to the partnership with Transpennine Express. Any passenger traveling through TPE stations will now be able to navigate with turn-by-turn directions throughout their stations using the GoodMaps Explore app, available on both iOS and Android free of charge. GoodMaps Explore can navigate travelers from the station entrance, through ticket barriers, and onto their train, with confidence and ease. By providing an inclusive navigation solution to the TPE transportation community, GoodMaps technology increases the adoption of public transport with a new enhanced wayfinding experience. GoodMaps recently acquired the Sendero GPS mobile app from Aira and released the subscription apps, Seeing Eye GPS, RNIB Navigator and Guide Dogs NSW under the name GoodMaps Outdoors for free. These state-of-the-art digital maps are then made available in the GoodMaps Explore app, which provides audio instructions to communicate routing and critical spatial 1839 Frankfort Avenue, Louisville, KY 40206 information as users move throughout a space, whether indoors or outdoors. The app can be downloaded for free in the Apple App Store or Android Marketplace. GoodMaps requires no infrastructure or beacons in a building. Others require dozens of beacons, which are costly and require maintenance. By utilizing LiDAR and image recognition, GoodMaps provide fast and accurate maps of indoor spaces at a fraction of the effort and costs. About American Printing House for the Blind’s GoodMaps Explore GoodMaps Explore is an accessible navigation application. It helps everyone, visually impaired or not, navigate indoors and outdoors safely and efficiently. To make that happen, GoodMaps is on a mission to map the great indoors by streamlining that process.

Hellow Everyone,
I am beginning home training Monday with my new guide. I am interested
in a gPS app that will just read the street names as I walk. Due to health
issues, I have forgotten street names, but still know the route. I have my
phone paired with my hearing aids. It would be really great if the app provided
information regarding whether an intersection has lights or stop signs.
Thank you in advance,

Re: GPS Apps That Will Announce Street Names
the renewed Seeing eye gps is called explore. I'm going to see how close it
gets to plotting routes compared to the original.

Hi Robert,
I'm not sure why you would continue to pay for using Seeing Eye GPS when you
can download and use the new version of it called GoodMaps Outdoors for free.
Does the old one offer something that Good Maps does not? Just curious.

Subject: GPS Apps That Will Announce Street Names
Hellow Everyone,
I am beginning home training Monday with my new guide. I am interested in
a gPS app that will just read the street names as I walk. Due to health issues,
I have forgotten street names, but still know the route. I have my phone paired
with my hearing aids. It would be really great if the app provided information
regarding whether an intersection has lights or stop signs.
Thank you in advance,
Lynda

RE: Looking for accessible GPS App
Hi Thom, is that app Ariadne good and or better than Blind Square or good maps? I have Blind Square but never tried the one you are talking about. I looked it up in the app store and it costs $4.99 Just not sure if I would benefit with it. Thoughts?

GPS Apps That Will Announce Street Names
Hellow Everyone, I am beginning home training Monday with my new guide. I am interested in a gPS app that will just read the street names as I walk. Due to health issues, I have forgotten street names, but still know the route. I have my phone paired with my hearing aids. It would be really great if the app provided information regarding whether an intersection has lights or stop signs.

Re: Looking for accessible GPS App
Hi Terri. Like I mentioned in another post, I recommend “Ariadne GPS.” You will have to use sighted assistance to set up the original route but you can add Points of Interest along the way that mark cross walks, streets, doors, beginnings of sidewalks and anything else that fits your fancy. When sidewalks don’t line up properly, it’s easy to mark locations on both sides of the street.

Re: Accessible GPS apps and bread crumbs
Yes, I was talking about your post. I just checked in the App Store, and it was there. Several years ago, it was not in the App Store, and they did not update the app when Apple made a shift to the 64-bit programs. But all I had to do is re-download, and my points of interest were there. At least a couple of them were. Thanks for letting me know about this. I think it will be a great replacement for Soundscape.

He lives on a farm that is approximately 60 acres in size. He needs an app in which he can navigate between specific landmarks on his property and be given directions or indicators if he wanders astray. This would be, for example, reaching a water tower from his house or finding his way back to his house from another part of his property. If anyone can suggest a specific app that will fit the bill, please let me know. Also, if one can give pointers that I can pass along to the person, I’d appreciate that as well. Take Care John D.

Re: Accessible GPS apps and bread crumbs
this sounds like a perfect job for NaviLens! The app is free and it works with QR codes specially adapted to be easily easily found by your phone. The codes are free, but do need to be printed from an email attachment. if they are to be used outside, and it sounds like they would, they should be either laminated or printed onto vinyl paper, also readily available from the net. T this might sound like a bit of extra work, and it may be that your friend would need some help getting set up, but these codes are really reliable and absolutely accurate I use them, I don't have 60 acres I only have one, but it's enough to get lost in and there are drop offs and stairs outside, so I like to use these to give me nice landmarks and indications of where I am, they will also guide me to them if I need it.

RE: Accessible GPS apps and bread crumbs
Several years ago I tried out MyWay Light. As I recall, one can set bread crumb points and name them as one wishes. Then one can select any named point and get directions and, if I recall correctly, distance to that location. I think holding the phone flat and pointed ahead then tells you the compass direction to turn to for proper orientation. I’m probably off in some details but it seemed very useful and simple at the time. I don’t know what the “light” version has for limitations, perhaps it is the number of points one can store. Hopefully it’s still in the App Store.

Re: Looking for accessible GPS App
I know of no GPS apps that will tell you about sidewalks. But, Apple Maps has gotten a lot better recently. Google Maps is also very good. You might also like GoodMaps outdoors. They give a little more detail on intersections. Those are all free apps. Richard, USA. “What we think or what we know or what we believe is in the end of little consequence.

Looking for accessible GPS App
Hello everyone, I was wondering, is there an accessible GPS App that I could use with my iPhone? It doesn't matter so much if it is free, or if I have to pay for it. I am looking for something that can show me what is around. But also, a way to know where possible sidewalks are. But I am uncertain as to whether or not such a thing exists. I am wanting to be able to walk to the rec center that is only about a 4th of a mile from my home. However, I don't know if this is even possible. Any thoughts, or suggestions are much appreciated.

If You have Microsoft Soundscape on your phone it has a mode called Soundscape Street preview that will do what you want. Unfortunately the app can no longer be downloaded, but if it's on your phone it will be fully functional through June of 2023.

Re: Virtual exploration with gps
The only one currently available that I know of is Blind Square. Though Microsoft Soundscape did this and if you have it, you can use it until June I think. Someone in Europe was asking about this option as Blind Square is rather expensive for her. So, if another app can do this, it would be good to know.

GPS App With Specific Details
Hi, I use a range of GPS apps and web sites but have not found one that has some details I’d like to have at times. I am curious if anyone has found such. For example, in planning a route, I’d like to schedule stops based on time travelled so if I’m going to be on a 20 hour drive I can say I want to stop every 8 hours and have the route planned based on those stops. Most of these apps also give you the turns and connections you are going to make. Sometimes they’ll tell you when you are crossing into another state. I’d like an option that would list some for of the cities I’m passing along the way. Today I tend to get most of these details, especially from the second category, by using an app called Exit. It lists the different exits along an interstate, what’s at the exit and typically gives you an idea of the city. Kelly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
