Accessibility
At Modern GIS, we are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive experience for all users. We strive to ensure that everyone, regardless of ability or disability, can easily access our educational resources. To achieve this, we use the One Click Accessibility plugin on WordPress, which provides several key accessibility features.
Accessibility Features
We have implemented the following accessibility tools to improve site usability:
- Color Contrast Adjustments: Our site allows users to increase or decrease color contrast to make text and other visual elements more readable.
- Grayscale Mode: Users can switch to a grayscale mode, which removes color to assist those with visual impairments or color blindness.
- Font Size Adjustments: Visitors can easily adjust the font size across our website to improve readability according to their preferences.
- Highlight Links: Users can choose to highlight all clickable links, making navigation simpler and clearer.
- Desaturation Mode: Our desaturation mode reduces the intensity of colors across the site, helping users with light sensitivity.
- Readable Fonts: For users with visual or cognitive impairments, our website offers a readable font option, switching text to a clearer, sans-serif font.
Additional Accessibility Efforts
In addition to the features provided by the One Click Accessibility plugin, we are committed to continuous improvements to meet accessibility standards:
- Alt Text for Images: We use descriptive alt text for images across our website, enabling screen readers to interpret visual content.
- Keyboard Navigation: Our site is designed to support full keyboard navigation, ensuring that users can access all elements without the need for a mouse.
- Responsive Design: Our website is optimized for a variety of devices and screen sizes, providing a seamless experience across desktops, tablets, and mobile phones.
Ongoing Commitment
We are dedicated to maintaining an accessible website and are continually working to improve our content and features. If you encounter any accessibility issues or have suggestions on how we can improve, please reach out to us. We welcome feedback from all users to help enhance the accessibility of our services.
Thank you for helping us make Modern GIS a more inclusive and accessible platform for everyone.
