## What is WWI Memorial Visitor Guide?

The WWI Memorial Visitor Guide can be an integral part of your experience when you visit the new WWI Memorial in Washington, D.C.

visitor guide map pageThe app provides an overview of the memorial and the various area. 

Not only does it provide insight into the Memorial and its history, but it also provides a plethora of information about WWI in an unique and interesting way by using Augmented Reality 

Each area has AR features that allow you to place objects, information, videos and more onto the grounds and surfaces of the memorial.

Timeline Tower
For example, in the Belvedere area, you can drop a giant timeline tower onto the ground that tells the story of WWI from 1914 through 1919 with over 50 narrated information panels.

A Soldier's Journey
Perhaps one of the most exciting features is the ability to place a full size model of Sabin Howard's 58', 48 character sculpture onto the back wall AT FULL SCALE. It's not like the real thing, but through your phone screen and the magic of augmented reality you get a very good sense of what this magnificent work of art will bring to the Memorial when it is installed in 2024.

The Vehicles of WWI
While you are on the Viewing Platform, with the giant reflecting pool, we allow you to place WWI era ambulances, motorcycles, planes, tanks, and ships out over the pool and when practical, we make them actual size to give a sense of what these craft were like. 

The Military History of WWI
Moving over to the Pershing Memorial area you can place various presentation on the walls of the Memorial space and learn about how American created a nearly 5 million person military force from a tiny standing army and deployed a fighting force of 2 million to France to decisively change the course of the war in just 18 months

How WWI Changed America
At the North Lower Terrace at President Wilson's quote, you can place an augmented reality viewer on the wall and select from over 50 short videos covering all the social aspects of WWI and how the War that Changed the World completely transformed every aspect of American life.

Virtual Remembrances
And finally, and perhaps most important, on the upper terrace by the Peace Fountain is where you can use the Visitor Guide App to explore the hundreds of Stories of Service that have been submitted to us by the public over the centennial period. Everyone is invited to contribute to this archive that lets you submit your ancestor's story of service in WWI, whether military or civilian. All these stories will be accessible in both the WWI Memorial Apps, the "Visitor Guide" for those at the Memorial in D.C. AND the "Virtual Explorer" that bring the entire memorial to everyone, anywhere whether at home or in the classroom.
