How does the map work?

 
The virtual map of the Garden of Destiny was suggested by Edgars Sins, Chairman of the Board of SIA „Metrum”, and is his company’s gift to the project. At the end of each season all the measurements are updated. The map makes it possible to see the placement of all plantings and it affords each individual the opportunity to follow along from a bird’s eye view as the Garden of Destiny takes shape. It also offers information about various aspects of the project and its supporters. The map consists of four parts.
 
The map – here you can move about the Garden of Destiny territory and view the selected map layer. Using the appropriate tools on the tool bar, it is possible to get information about the various parts of the Garden of Destiny. The legend includes available map layers and their description. The map layer depiction varies depending on the scale you choose and can be seen only upon magnification. Opening and closing separate map layers, it is possible to view the Garden of Destiny at various times during the year.

Overview map – clicking on the part of the map that is of interest to you, it is possible to enlarge or reduce the image. Selecting „Information about the object” and „clicking” on one of the objects in the Garden of Destiny, a window appears offering a list of objects that it is possible to get more information about. Clicking on an object in this list based on object type (trees, rock formations, large donation objects) an information window opens under the map window with information about the object selected. If you select the object „Silver Sunset (rock formation)”, a list of people who have donated rocks to the Garden of Destiny will appear. It is possible to view the list in alphabetical order or to find a particular supporter.
