Turn sound on to hear voice descriptions of the map views.

Find the app and api code here: https://github.com/sparkgeo/map-to-speech-demo

The video shows two examples of adding text and speech descriptions to a web map. In each example, the user pans and zooms into an area of interest and then clicks on a button to fetch a voice and text description of the map view. After a few seconds, a text box at the bottom of the screen populates with a text description, and a voice begins reading the description out loud. The method is shown to work in both residential and rural areas.</description></oembed>
