This study aimed to design a cartographic visualization for mobile navigation applications around indoor spaces, including metro stations, with persons with special needs in mind. The visualization will be used in a dedicated application for mobile devices supporting the navigation of people around the Warsaw metro. The app was developed for any metro users and includes functions that help persons with special needs navigate the metro. It is not possible to meet the needs of persons with every type, degree, or complexity of disability, but the methodology has been developed based on the principles of designing cartographic presentations, accessibility guidelines and existing solutions, taking into account the needs of persons with special needs and the specifics of metro navigation. As a result, it differs significantly from the visualizations that currently exist in the Warsaw metro. The developed methodology was tested by designing a map of the Świętokrzyska metro station and subjected to user testing, including persons with special needs. The types of special needs included mobility disabilities, colour vision deficiency, and persons, who often travel with baby strollers. The results obtained allowed to improve the proposed solution.
