You can write an e-mail message explaining the issue to the website team kdmoderator@cros.ru.

Website search engine can help you to find any object you are interested in, using its parameters (object category and the element of the barrier-free environment)
Search engine for each city marked on the map is separate.

Finding a place by its category (museum, store, movie theatre, airport, etc.)

Step 1. For searching an object by its category, in the left upper corner of the map select the city where this object is located. Once you have selected the city, you will see the map of chosen city with accessible places marked on it.

Step 2. In the right upper corner of the map press the button “All objects”. This option allows selecting a type of object: “Building” or “Street”. Select type “Building”. You will see the map of the chosen city, with accessible buildings on it.

Step 3. To select the category of the object, you have to move the cursor to the top right corner of the map and press the icon “Cup”. You will see the tabs “Categories” and “Element of barrier-free environment”.

Step 4. In the tab "Categories" select the category of your object. You will see a map of the selected city with objects you are interested in.

Please note that each object category has subcategories. In order to clarify the sub-category of the object, click on the category name. For example, category "Leisure" includes just six sub-categories :
1. libraries
2. Cultural Centers, Creativity Centers
3. Movie theatres
4. Museums, exhibition centers
5. Theatres, Concert Halls
6. Clubs, internet cafes
If you select the entire category "Leisure", search engine will give results which include all the libraries, cultural centers, movie theatres, museums, theatres and clubs marked on the map of your chosen city.

When adding an object on the map, it is very important to specify all the information about the object, including the exact address, phone number or e-mail, a category to which the object, as well as elements of a barrier-free environment of the object, belong.

Filling the entire form for description of the object with the elements of a barrier-free environment, allows a person with a disability to find quickly the building he is interested in, especially on the map of cities where more than 500 objects are already marked. Form for adding an object is directly linked to a special filter on the map, which helps to select an object by its type, category, and also by the presence of certain elements of barrier-free environment. This allows people with disabilities to find objects available specifically for their category of disability.

Adding contact information of the object allows a person with impaired musculoskeletal system to learn quickly how to get without difficulties to the object from the nearest public transport stop.

Thus, while filling the entire form takes some time, your patience will be appreciated by people with disabilities who choose to visit the places you've added.
