Yuma Airport introduces app to help navigate facility
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The Yuma Airport launched a new tool Thursday to make it easier for travelers to get around the facility.
The Goodmaps app is an indoor navigation platform.
It supports audio navigation for blind and low-vision travelers, visual guidance for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
It's also available in more than 20 languages.
"Arrows on the ground that guide to your destination we have the haptic feedback so if your deaf ad make a bad turn it will let you know: hey look at your phone and double check also have the ability to go step-free if you are in a mobility impaired user as well," said Christian Dospil, Goodmaps business development representative.
Yuma International Airport is the first airport to implement Goodmaps scan-and-go technology in our region.
