How to use this website

This page explains how to use this website's georeferenced system to exploit all its potential in order to explore the Adriatic-Ionian geographical area.

Georeferenced system

The "georeferenced navigation" uses satellite's images of the territory and allows to locate geographically each tourist "attraction" within the area; the place where it is located is graphically represented by an "interest" point within a map. The search of interest points can be filtered at different geographic levels (countries, provinces/counties/regions, single cities) or according to the specific interest of the user (art and culture, sea and nature, sport and wellness, religion or food and wine).

The website is divided in three macro-areas:

• Heading and horizontal menu
• Left vertical menu
• Contents

Heading and horizontal menu

The top of the website pages contains the heading with the website logo, a background image and a horizontal menu with five sections allowing to view all institutional areas of the website: by clicking on the area's name the relative page is displayed.
Clicking on "What Adrion is", a page opens explaining the brand's identity, mission and objective; clicking on "Contacts" a page opens with a module to forward a request; clicking on "Useful links" a page displays with a list of some reference national websites concerning tourism.
When the mouse pointer is positioned on the different menu's sections, the icon of the arrow within the button becomes blue.
