In these situations, it is necessary to secure the wheelchair to the vehicle and provide occupant protection with a Wheelchair Tiedown and Occupant Restraint System (WTORS).
This literature review summarizes wheelchair transportation safety, focusing on areas pertinent to designing automated vehicles (AVs) so they can accommodate people who remain seated in their wheelchairs for travel. The partnership with Kinedyne Inc., a manufacturer of securement devices, provided the industry-based focus that resulted in the cost containment and marketing expertise necessary to make the ADD a viable commercial product.

A user focus group provided feedback on the utility of the overall universal auto-docking concept, as well as guidance for improvement to control interfaces that would be located in the wheelchair and driver stations. maximum requirement stipulated in the 1990 ADA.

Follow-up in-vehicle testing indicated the need for design refinement in order to prevent movement of an occupied manual wheelchair in excess of the 2-in. ADD development has demonstrated that a standards-compatible ADD can be produced that meets the rigorous crash test requirements of ISO10542-3. A secondary purpose was to produce a practical design that directly addressed the most pressing securement deficiencies being experienced by transit users and providers that had promise of transfer to commercial availability. Please let us know what you require at the local community level so that this potential new tool for the AMN is best designed to meet your needs.The main purpose of this study was to demonstrate that an auto-docking device (ADD) could be produced that would meet the requirements for the universal interface contained in the evolving International Standard Organization (ISO10542-3) standard and also meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations within the United States.

Would a free web-based GIS application add value to your local work, and how? A key application goal is to protect local knowledge by allowing the user to maintain local control over those data (not sent out to a foreign server like Google Maps requires), while maintaining the flexibility to tap into publicly accessible geospatial data.
The basic mapping functionality might draw upon and expand uDIG, an Open Source GIS application, to specifically address the needs of Indigenous practitioners (with or without GIS experience) with a ready-to-use tool to make maps efficiently.

For example, where in the world of AMN users are practitioners working on mapping of subsurface Indigenous burial grounds? Do you find you work in isolation from peers, need professional feedback on your projects, or like us, see the enormous potential of the AMN and the web to fill professional voids between conferences or meetings? The social networking function of the UserMap could better connect the growing population of global AMN users by enabling geographic and attribute queries to be asked of select attributes of the UserMap database, returning results connecting individuals or community web resources interested in learning from each others experiences. We would really appreciate your feedback. We are currently seeking funding to expand upon the geospatial functionality of the UserMap – both to improve the social (professional) networking capabilities of the tool, and to add a mapping/basic analysis functionality. As hosts of the Aboriginal Mapping Network (AMN) we are always interested in learning how the web-based resources AMN provides can improve your local work.
