The Spatial Studio user interface works well with screen magnifiers. All features of the product can be magnified by a screen magnifier.

5.3 Highly Visual Features of Oracle Spatial Studio

Spatial Studio includes features that are highly visual, and these features have equivalent functionality that is available to people who are blind or visually impaired, except for the generated maps, which are only visual. However, results of an analysis can also be generated as JSON and tables, as an alternative format to the visual map.

All of the functionality is available through REST APIs.

In Spatial Studio, it is possible to create, edit, and generate an analysis result using only keystrokes.
