About A Tour of Venetian Candia APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Venetian Heraklion, known as Candia in 1640 AD, is enlivened through a virtual reality app. that allows the user (inhabitant, visitor, educator) to “travel” virtually in both time and space and to receive multifaceted and varied information, both in Greek and English.The innovation of the project lies in the fact that the screen of the portable device (tablet or smartphone) turns into ‘a window’ in time. While the user moves within the old city of Heraklion, through specific routes, Venetian Candia unfolds before them. With the use of GPS, compass and gyroscope, the old city along with the monuments that still stand, or have another use today or have even been lost in time, come alive on the user’s screen. An “experiential” on site and real time guided tour in the historical centre of Heraklion, with the aid of new technologies and 3D photorealistic reconstructions along with texts, photos, narration, offer a variety of information about the city monuments and its sightseeing.
In case that the user is not within the limits of the old city, the application starts from the centre and with the joystick, shown at the bottom of the screen, they can wander around and get to know the city. They can also choose between the ground or “fly over” tour.
The user can choose between the English and Greek language, the font size, the altitude of the “fly over” view, minimum required GPS accuracy, the X, Y GPS offset, the field of view, the horizontal and the vertical angle offset etc. Thus the user is able to adapt the application to their own factors and choices.
Through forty (40) 3d representations of buildings and the urban tissue of the Venetian period, the user gets a complete – as much as is possible - picture of 1640 Venetian Candia, a little before the Ottoman siege, conquest and domination. The administrative city centre (around the “Lions’ fountain”), the imposing buildings - palaces and government buildings- the magnificent churches and monasteries, the port with the fortress and the arsenals, the fortification walls with the renaissance gates, the elaborate fountains and many other monuments, appear on the screen of the smart mobile devices composing the image of a capital city of Venetian Crete, at its peak.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
