Al, You make some good points. *NEXT* year I will have to see if they can implement a strict Euclidean X,Y coordinate scheme for booth assignment. There is a committee that is working to assure that there are volunteers to meet attendees who are blind. These folks won't be orientation and mobility specialist though. You might be on to something with your idea for an "aislewise index" to the floorplan. Can you point me to some example? This work will NOT be done by the "floor planners" but after the fact. But jeez: > The best general solution I could offer you for maps at this time is to > distill the map information into a geographical information system and lay > a wayfinding application over the information in the GIS. Do you think we will be handing out laptops and portable Global Positioning Systems at the door? -- Bruce
