A review of the literature from 1965 to 2008 on tactile maps and models in orientation and mobility yielded four pre-experimental and three experimental articles. The articles were analyzed via best-evidence synthesis—a combined narrative and statistical approach—allowing for recommendations for the most effective use of tactile maps and models.
