Places

Places shows certain points of interest in Genesis City and Worlds.

The title, description and image of your Place are taken from the scene metadata. Find out more about editing the  scene metadata ).

When you re-upload your scene, the Places website will update any metadata automatically.

Each Place is assigned a unique ID. When certain conditions are met, your Place may be deemed “new”, resulting in a new ID assignment. This change will cause your Place to lose any accumulated favorites and likes. For details on these conditions, please refer to  ADR: Place Identifiers .

In order to prevent abuse, the like percentage is calculated from likes and dislikes from users who have at least 100  voting power . Anyone with an account can like or dislike, but only qualifying votes are used to calculate the like percentage. Increase your chances of getting a good rating by making sure your Place has a title, description and thumbnail.

Points of interest are notable locations in Decentraland. These “POIs” are promoted in several areas of the virtual world’s UI, and are promoted as good places for users to explore, especially people new to Decentraland. You can create a  proposal  in the  DAO  to nominate your Place as a Point of Interest.

As defined in the Worlds 1.0 - Short-Term Plan  DAO proposal , we allow discoverability of Worlds deployed to Foundation’s World Content Server only for NAME owners that also hold LAND or an active LAND rental contract.
