### Impact

The data collected during this event directly supports:

- **Accessible routing** — improved trip planning for wheelchair users, people in the blind/low-vision community, and others with mobility needs through [AccessMap](https://accessmap.app/)
- **Pedestrian navigation** — more complete sidewalk and crossing data enables safer, more accurate walking and rolling directions
- **Open data** — a richer, freely available dataset for Vancouver, WA and the surrounding region
