All Green Maps use a set of globally designed Green Icons. Developed collaboratively by the network of local project leaders and Green Map System. This is one of the world’s first universal symbol sets for maps. The globally designed icons ensure that all Green Maps engage and guide a diversity of users. Because concepts of sustainability are continually evolving, Green Map System released version three of the icon system in March 2008, provided as sets of images or as a font for ease of use or as stickers for youth/computer-less Green Mapmakers.
