TESTING ACCESSIBILITY OF GEOSPATIAL APPLICATIONS USING CONTEXTUAL FILTERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17933477 titled 'TESTING ACCESSIBILITY OF GEOSPATIAL APPLICATIONS USING CONTEXTUAL FILTERS

Simplified Explanation

The method described in the abstract involves applying a contextual filter to mask a portion of input, output, or underlying dataset of a software application, simulating a user limitation, executing the software application with the filter, collecting ambient data, and recommending modifications to improve accessibility or inclusion of the software application.

  • Applying contextual filter to mask software application data:
 - Simulates user limitations
 - Enhances user experience
 - Improves software accessibility
  • Executing software application with contextual filter:
 - Allows for data analysis
 - Provides insights for modifications
 - Enhances user interaction
  • Collecting ambient data during execution:
 - Gathers real-time information
 - Helps in understanding user behavior
 - Aids in making data-driven decisions
  • Recommending modifications to software application:
 - Based on execution results
 - Improves accessibility and inclusion
 - Enhances overall user experience

Original Abstract Submitted

A method performed by a processing system including at least one processor includes applying a contextual filter to mask a portion of at least one of: an input of a software application, an output of the software application, or an underlying dataset of the software application, where the contextual filter simulates a limitation of a user of the software application, executing the software application with the contextual filter applied to the at least one of: the input of the software application, the output of the software application, or the underlying dataset of the software application, collecting ambient data during the executing, and recommending, based on a result of the executing, a modification to the software application to improve at least one of: an accessibility of the software application or an inclusion of the software application.
