The Accessibility Database (in Swedish “Tillgänglighetsdatabasen”) contains detailed accessibility information about thousands of public facilities such as conference venues and medical clinics.

For every facility, there are photographs showing doors, pathways, lavatories, ramps and elevators. Measurements for door width, height of tables, height of free space beneath tables, distances, slope inclinations, relative positioning of space reserved for smokers, and many other factors relevant to the accessibility of the facility is presented.

Facilities are searchable using a map interface as well as free text and categories. Coverage is quite good for the Gothenburg region, but sporadic in other parts of the country.
