Popis:	Spatial cognition of visually handicapped people has clarified and walking environment for them has been improved. However, the pedestrian spaces of present condition are still highly constrained for them. A spiral ramp is one of them. Therefore, the authors surveyed the spatial cognition of visually handicapped people on a spiral ramp. In this study, in order to clarify the characteristics of their spatial cognition and search behavior, experiments were carried out in 14 kinds of courses on a spiral ramp. Subjects were visually handicapped people and eye-masked people with ordinary vision. The search behavior of the two is compared and analyzed by walking locus and observation; and the spatial cognition, by interview and observation.
