## Description

Basing on tests with street children, VolksNav makes StreetSmart was developed for children, the blind, those who can't read maps etc. 

It divides 500 cities allover the world like a cake into 12 sectors, forming location codes which are a better answer to the question "where?" than names, post codes, lat/lon or "here". 

The app uses GPS and compass and - a worldwide innovation - indicates the direction to the centre of town, and this with text and graphic !! 

Following the instructions on www.volksnav.de/StreetSmart, such tools allow a self-guiding like in Rio de Janeiro around the Christ statue: 

- inwards/outwards 
and 
- clockwise / counter clockwise. 

The main benefits are 
- awareness improvement concerning locations,  directions, distances, cardinal points and angles; 
- sharping of orientation sense. 
- a language for international understanding (Orientation Esperanto)
