How the Open Green Map Works
3 images that help you learn how to use the map, its sidebar and the sites on it. Map Features shows find out how you can share a map, join a map team, or suggest a site. Site Features help you find all the information, impacts, media, etc. about each site. Legend Features include the whole sidebar, so you can get familiar with how the Legend functions, find out about the Mapmakers, and use the search box to find related and nearby Open Green Maps. Each blue link is 1 MB JPG. If you would like the high resolution version, click to download a zip file with all three images 6MB). Or, download a 2 page flowchart here.
