WCAG and 508 Compliance

Rizing Geospatial is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Measures to Support Accessibility

Rizing Geospatial takes the following measures to ensure accessibility across all our web applications:

  • Includes accessibility as part of our routine quality assurance testing
  • Runs automated tests through an updated accessibility engine

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Rizing Geospatial is partially conformant to varying extent with WCAG levels A, AA and AAA for each of the WCAG principles. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Additional Accessibility Considerations

Our goal is to meet WCAG Levels A, AA and AAA conformance to the best of our ability recognizing that full compliance is unrealistic given the visual nature, complexity, and extensive code libraries utilized by our suite of web tools.
