# Exploring 3D Parcellation Maps
On the bottom left of the viewer, you find selectors for choosing the species, reference space, and parcellation map. The latter two are shown only if more than one option is available.
On the bottom left of the viewer, you find the atlas selection panel which provides buttons choosing the species, reference space, and parcellation map. The latter two are shown only if more than one option is available.

- (Middle) The volumetric views support ultrahigh-resolution data, and can be zoomed in if the underlying image data allows. Each of the 3 planar views can be maximized using the "[ ]" icon in each view.
- (Right) For pure surface spaces, such as the fsaverage space, the viewer shows only a 3D view.

## Navigation panel
At the top left of the user interface, `siibra-explorer` displays the 3D coordinate of the currently selected center of view together with the navigation icon 🧭. When you click it with the mouse pointer, a navigation panel opens, which allows to enter a different coordinates, and create a shareable link to the current view (see ["Storing and sharing 3D views"](../basics/storing_and_sharing_3d_views.md)).
## View navigation panel
At the top left of the user interface, `siibra-explorer` displays the 3D coordinate of the currently selected center of view together with the navigation icon 🧭. When you click it with the mouse pointer, a navigation panel for the 3D view opens, which allows to enter different coordinates, copy the current coordinates, and create a shareable link to the current view (see ["Storing and sharing 3D views"](../basics/storing_and_sharing_3d_views.md)).

## Parcellation map selectors
At the bottom of the window, you find buttons to switch between different species, different reference templates, and different parcellation maps.
Working with different maps is described in ["Exploring parcellation maps"](../basics/exploring_3d_parcellation_maps.md)).
