Description
Currently, finding a POI in Decentraland requires you to open the DCL Map, and move across a 2D interface to see what you can potentially experience.
The few access points that exist in DCL (like the ones in Genesis Plaza) don’t fully capture the vast amounts of POIs that already exist in Decentraland.
We wish to change this.
By scraping data from the DCL DAO votes, and by getting users to travel across the DCL Map, we want to create a database of all the current existing POIs in Decentraland, and minimally add them into an upcoming events hub called https://metaverse-events.xyz/ . The data-scraping will ensure that we can continue updating the site with newly approved POIs.
This will eventually allow us to connect events being organised in POI spaces to actual events on the metaverse-events website & the DCL Website. This is just a first step in being able to create a one-stop-shop for all Metaverse Events and meeting points in DCL.
Specification
https://metaverse-events.xyz/ is an upcoming project that aims to interoperably promote different events across the Metaverse.
Whilst this is an entirely independent project, we want to start laying out the foundations for POIs to have a more accessible and immersive scope to how the user finds and experiences different points of interest in Decentraland.
This process will take approximately a 2-3 weeks, where members of our team will begin by outlining all the different POIs in Decentraland, and writing a short description of each POI. These will then be implemented into the Metaverse-Events platform, where users can search, browse and discover different POIs (coupled with tags and descriptions) and jump directly into Decentraland through an easy-to-use UI.
Personnel
This project, alongside the mother project https://metaverse-events.xyz/, is being spearheaded by Metaverse Architects, one of the leading Metaverse-Development team in the Metaverse Sector.
Metaverse Architects are an innovative design and event planning firm, specializing in 3D modeling and game development across multiple metaverses. Their in-house team of skilled architects, developers, marketers, and designers are dedicated to building metaverse use cases on a daily basis, and are a one-stop-shop for all your metaverse needs.

Roadmap and milestones
This project will take 4 weeks to implement, with 2 weeks dedicated to collecting data, refining tags and producing content/information on the POIs. The following two weeks will be dedicated towards ensuring the right implementation and user experience is created for the POI space.
