Displaying 508 Compliant Descriptive Text | PopChart Server User Guide 4.0.5 |
As the global leader in interactive data visualization, Corda Technologies recognizes the importance of providing equal access to information for users who are visually impaired. Corda Technologies is the first and only company to provide multiple charting and graphing solutions that create accessible, 508 compliant charts and graphs with descriptive text. The descriptive text is available for a screen reader device to audibly describe the chart or graph so a visually impaired user can understand the graphical information. Corda Technologies has included the descriptive text feature in all of the PopChart family of charting and graphing solutions to facilitate inclusion of 508 compliant charts and graphs in all Web content.
PopChart's charts and graphs are interactive for all users, including the visually impaired. Interactive graphs enable all users to drill down to more in-depth information. Sighted users receive additional information by drilling down to another chart. Non-sighted users access the same additional information by going from one chart with descriptive text to another chart with descriptive text. As the data changes, the chart and the descriptive text automatically change to match the new data. This fulfills the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
