## Kuvaus

PlainSpeak Accessible Geospatial Companion is an accessibility-first framework for
publishing GIS-backed status information in WordPress.

Core philosophy:

Question
  Answer  Optional Exploration

Maps are optional supporting evidence rather than the primary user experience.

### Intended Data Model

PlainSpeak Accessible Geospatial Companion is designed for datasets that have already
been summarized into reporting metrics.

Typical examples include:

 * Miles of infrastructure by status
 * Projects by phase
 * Assets by condition
 * Counts by category

PlainSpeak presents these summarized values in an accessible, plain-language format
and may optionally link to interactive applications for additional exploration.

PlainSpeak is not intended to replace dashboards, reporting systems, or ad-hoc analysis
of detailed operational records.

### Features

 * Accessibility-first results
 * Compatible with public ArcGIS REST Feature Services
 * GeoJSON data source support
 * Detail-area and rollup-area summary views
 * Static preview images
 * Optional link to explore data interactively
 * Keyboard and screen reader support
 * Theme-aware typography

directly on the page. Interactive maps, applications, and other data exploration
tools can be provided as optional resources.
