A More Accessible Map

Is there a way to display text-based data on a map, keeping it accessible, useful, and visually attractive?

This web article explains, and gives an example for making web-based maps more accessible.

Disability is part of the natural diversity of human life. It touches all of us, whether through our own individual experience or that of a family member, neighbor, friend or colleague. As such, we all have a role in—and benefit to gain from—advancing equality for people with disabilities in all sectors of society, including the workplace.
