The virtual tour of the Faculty of Science of Charles University was created for students with special needs, especially for the physically disabled in wheelchairs. The work was created at the Department of Applied Geoinformatics and Cartography in cooperation with the Department of Studies of the Faculty of Science and the Carolina Centre of the Charles University.
Virtual tour
The virtual tour was created by Bc. Anna Kožíšková as her bachelor thesis under the supervision of ing. Eva Štefanová, Ph.D. The aim was to design and create a virtual tour for the building of the Faculty of Science of Charles University for students with special needs. The result is a comprehensive tour of the Faculty of Science of Charles University, which will enable disabled students, especially students who use wheelchairs, to get acquainted with the possibilities of barrier-free movement at the faculty.
Accessibility of buildings
Charles University has long been striving to ensure barrier-free access to its buildings and teaching spaces. However, the situation can be complicated by the fact that the University's workplaces are located in more than 100 buildings, often very old and listed.
Below you can see the current state of accessibility of the main UK buildings and their components. The information includes, among other things, contact details of the staff responsible, how to get to your destination and a description of the accessibility and wayfinding system.
