The Rocket Guide's full screen space and aerial photographs allow you to quickly and easily learn about New Caledonia and it's tourism attractions. You will find the location of over 700 tourism facilities and activities on the space and aerial images with complete contact details and live email and website links. It's kind of like Google Earth, but much more advanced because when you locate a hotel or activity, and click on it, you zoom in to ground level for a virtual tour, including 360 degree panoramics and full screen virtual reality sphere images like this sphere image of La Promenade Best Western Premier Luxury Hotel in Noumea (full screen 1.5MB).
The guide uses a point and click navigation system to explore New Caledonia from outer space to under the sea.
Unlike web sites, the CD gives big full screen razor sharp images instantly. Unlike the Internet you'll have everything right there, instantly available, and completely organized for rapid access in a standard and easy to understand navigation system.
What's more, we've left out the "advertising" and throw-away comments like "the best" and "unsurpassed" and "magnificent" so you can make up your own mind based on imagery and clear, factual information. |
The guide opens with a space image of all of New Caledonia and a menu that offers links to general information about New Caledonia.
Point to any part of the island and a brief summary pops up instantly with information about that area.
Click on an area to zoom down until the screen is filled with a high resolution space image of the area.
You can also use Search to quickly find any accommodation or other facility by name and go there with a single click. |
