I've led you now to a collection of travel posts I've made (all definitely worth your time to read in detail). Each view I've set up for you was a link, and though you may not know it, the link represents a search specification in the system and a view setup, such as map centering and zoom level. I'm able with Atlasphere to set up the views I want you to see. They're all encapsulated in a link that can be shared with others.
For example, I can show you a trip to Baja California, a small collection of markers that reference each other. The view that I set up lets you see the resort I stayed at, zoomed way in, with an overhead "satellite" view for context. The link will take you there, displayed in a separate browser tab so as not to interfere with this tour, but notice that if you copy the link and paste it in, say, a WhatsApp message to send to someone, your message will be enhanced with a preview of the link. It's a compelling way to entice viewing.
Click on the link above, but then come back to this tab to carry on. The view is tightly zoomed in, so you can pinch to reveal more. You can also switch back to street view by displaying the side menu by tapping on the Atlasphere logo on the top left of the screen. You can toggle between Satellite and Street Views, and you can dismiss the side menu by pushing it back to the left or tapping on the X-icon at the top.
Let's look at another example, an ordered itinerary to New Zealand.
