Record paths

With Ginto, you can record important accessibility information for paths between different areas. Along a path, you can record features such as stairs, elevators, and doors. This information helps Ginto users identify in advance which areas are accessible to them.

1
Paths can be recorded via the "Paths" menu selection. Ginto will provide initial suggestions. Add any additional required paths manually by clicking "Add path."
2
Select the start and end points for each path.
3
Click on the newly created path and then on "Add path segment." Here, you can add each path element along the route from start to end individually. Make sure not to omit any path elements.
4
Record the details for each path element according to the specifications in Ginto. Any remaining required criteria are highlighted in yellow in the app. Click "Add" to save your entries.
5
Under "Further information," you can add details that are relevant to the entire path.

Use the three dots in the top right corner to delete a path or an individual path element, or to edit the order of the path elements.

For certain path elements, such as stairs, you can record alternative elements like an elevator directly under "Add alternative" (instead of "Add path segment"). Recurring path elements, such as stairs or elevators, can be recorded once and then reused for multiple paths (see the guide Reusing path elements).

Our tip: Walk the path and record every element exactly as it is to ensure nothing is forgotten. Ginto users decide for themselves whether a path is accessible based on your objective information.
