Abstract

Mobile tagging is an extension of social tagging that allows users to associate location-sensitive information with physical objects in the real world. This paper presents MoTag, a mobile tagging application that is used to help people with disabilities share up-to-date accessibility information about buildings and other physical structures to help them navigate their environment. MoTag integrates with G-Portal, a geospatial digital library for storing, managing and retrieving tags.
