Icons

The CRD Community Green Map icons are based on a universal green-map iconography designed by Green Map® System (link is external). The symbols make every green map easy to explore, regardless of the language and cultural orientation of the user. Browse the icons below, and you'll find symbols designed specifically for the Capital Region, like Camas Meadow, Garry Oak, and Culturally Modified Tree. © Green Map System, Inc. 2012 (link is external)
