Accessibility

This website is designed to be as accessible to as many people as possible, including persons with a disability, people living in remote locations and people using alternative technologies such as a smartphone.

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has produced the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) to assist website designers, developers and administrators in producing accessible pages and content. There are three levels of accessibility compliance; Level A, AA and AAA.

This website, srss.landgate.wa.gov.au, aims to achieve at least Level AA compliance on all pages. There are some web mapping applications and historical documents, however, that have not been optimised for accessibility and therefore do not meet this level of compliance.
