# 3.7. Territories

This section contains information about map items that belong to the <q>Territories</q> category on YME. These items typically include the buildings and structures located on them, which are designated according to their use. For example, the territories of educational institutions (academic buildings, dormitories, etc.), industrial zones, construction areas, beaches, and so on.

Territories are represented on the map as polygonal items that contain information about that area's characteristics.
