Abstract
This contribution is a summary of the paper: R. Alcaraz Martínez,
M. Ribera, T. Granollers (2021). Methodology for heuristic
evaluation of the accessibility of statistical charts for people with
low vision and color vision deficiency. Universal access in the
information society. doi:10.1007/s10209-021-00816-0. The
research presented in this paper aims to create a set of heuristics
to evaluate the accessibility of statistical charts focusing on the
needs of people with low vision (LV) and color vision deficiency
(CVD). To do so, a set of heuristics was developed based on the
methodology by Quiñones et al. [6]. Once created a first version
set of heuristics (17 indicators) was applied on two evaluations.
After the evaluations, the list has been amplified to 18 indicators
and received other improvements: the scoring was simplified, and
the authors created further documentation for evaluators. This
research is a first step in the direction to create accessible charts
for people with low vision, a user profile normally forgotten in
digital accessibility research.
