On the 31st of December, Love, the new Venetian way of celebrating New Year, returns to Piazza San Marco. Once again, the New Year celebrations will culminate in a vast, communal kiss between over 60,000 people. One unanimous kiss to send a message of love, peace and brotherhood to the world. A simple but profound gesture which will welcome in the New Year at an event that is destined to become a very special memory for all those who will be there to enjoy this new, unforgettable night in Venice.

The Atlas of the Lagoon is the result of interdisciplinary work by a scientific team involving many specialists working in universities and organisations which study the Venice Lagoon. It was created with the aim of disseminating knowledge about the lagoon's ecosystem among researchers, professionals, citizens and tourists.
The 103 maps available online (divided into 5 different sections: Geosphere, Biosphere, Anthroposphere, Protected Environments, Integrated Analyses) can be consulted trough webGIS, a web tool which allows users to search areas of interest and to print and download them directly from the Internet, with no need of any software to be installed.
