Help: POI
Imagine the POI as an illustrated book. The story is composed of photos and videos with short captions.
The pages of this book— the Media and the News—must be sorted by Chapters (Context, History, Stories, etc.) to have an interesting and structured narration.

Category
The POI is represented on the atlas by a specific icon for each Category. The categories can be added while creating the POI.
Balloon image

The image must be edited with a graphics software reducing it to 90x90px with 72dpi resolution and a maximum size of 5 KB.
