The aim of the summary is to confirm the argument which is:
After the World War II the Old Town in Warsaw was completely reconstructed

Import all the points which you have found and saved during your urban game route from the
GPS device to Google Earth. Add all the other objects (lines, points etc.) which you had to find in
some tasks too. Now you have about 10 minutes to finish all your tasks by using Google Earth
and other necessary programs.
