A global language for local impact

Green Map’s set of globally recognized icons were co-created for charting local nature, culture, social and sustainability resources. Use them on the versatile Green Map Platform. We also provide icons for your locally made print maps and engagement materials. Draw attention to local progress as well as conditions impacting community, climate and care. Green Map Icons link your project to map makers in 65 countries.

Use default icon sets or add your own

The Green Map platform provides multiple icon sets you can make use of. Need local icons or a themed icon set? You can create icons and use them alongside the Green Map Icons on the Platform, or on your print maps. Icons bring people with diverse perspectives together to talk through local assets and environmental and social challenges such as access to green spaces, making healthier choices, planning local networks of bike routes, going solar, or documenting heritage sites at risk.
