Our app main feature is being able to check a map and find out about region-specific animals. As such, one of the main challanges is the implementation of this map and finding a way to write over it.
While at this phase only the label "Viseu" can be seen, it is possible to implement such concept and our current implementation allows us to put text in any tile, at a specific zoom.
