  1. A consultant uses drone photogrammetry to assess site accessibility. What is the primary limitation of this method for ADA compliance work?

    Answer: Aerial imagery may lack the vertical resolution needed to measure ground-level details like curb heights

    Aerial drone photogrammetry excels at mapping large areas but typically lacks the millimeter-level vertical precision needed to verify 1/4-inch or 1/2-inch ADA beveled curb tolerances.

  2. Under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, which category of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) must federal agencies ensure is accessible?

    Answer: Electronic content, software, hardware, and telecommunications products procured or used by federal agencies

    Section 508 broadly covers all ICT that federal agencies develop, procure, maintain, or use, including websites, software, hardware, and telecommunications.

  3. Which screen reader is most commonly used on Windows platforms for testing digital accessibility compliance?

    Answer: NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access)

    NVDA is the most widely used free screen reader on Windows and is a standard tool for testing web and application accessibility compliance.

  4. A consultant needs to document slope gradients along an accessible path using digital tools. Which instrument provides the most accurate slope measurement?

    Answer: A digital inclinometer or smart level with 0.1-degree resolution

    A digital inclinometer with high resolution accurately measures running and cross slopes to verify ADA requirements (max 1:20 running slope, 1:50 cross slope).

  5. What is the purpose of an 'accessibility overlay' product marketed for websites, and why do many disability advocates oppose them?

    Answer: They are JavaScript plugins claiming to auto-fix accessibility; opposed because they introduce new barriers and do not remediate source code

    Overlay products inject JavaScript to modify page presentation but frequently introduce new bugs and do not fix underlying code-level accessibility barriers.

  6. Which international standard specifically addresses the accessibility requirements for ATMs and point-of-sale terminals as digital/physical ICT products?

    Answer: EN 301 549 (European ICT accessibility standard)

    EN 301 549 is the European standard for ICT accessibility that covers hardware terminals including ATMs and kiosks and aligns with WCAG for digital content.

  7. A CEAC consultant uses a 3D accessibility simulation tool to model a wheelchair user's navigation path. Which metric is MOST critical to extract from this simulation?

    Answer: Turning radius clearances at intersections and door approaches

    Simulating turning radius clearances reveals whether a wheelchair user can maneuver at door approaches, T-intersections, and passing spaces per ADA Standards.
