The Barrier-Free Toilet Finder is an independent, open-source app (by "The Hacking Debt") that maps accessible/wheelchair-friendly toilets in Tokyo using the city's open data, and lets users crowdsource additions. Built on Tokyo Metropolitan Government open datasets covering wheelchair-accessible toilets and cultural-facility accessibility, it displays locations and facility details on a map, lets people upload supplementary info from their phones to enrich the data, and even lets other users send a "thank you" notification to contributors.
