May I suggest a good place to start might be the National
Centre for Tactile Diagrams based at RNIB, Birmingham.

Subject: Guidelines for describing diagrams to blind/VI
students
Dear all,
Does anybody have, or know where I might look for, some
guidelines/tips/examples of best practice for readers and
note-takers
who need to describe diagrams to blind/VI students?
I've done an extensive Google search but drawn a bit of a
blank.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Harriet
