This describes a method of mapping community assets by displaying geographically-referenced, informational videos. A user selects a geographic location and receives a representative map of the selected location from a proprietary website. This map is displayed on their video screen by a web browser, overlaid with a number of entity markers, each of which represents a place of interest related to the selected location. These markers include the geographically nearest of a group of different types of entities, including the nearest ATM, the nearest gas station, the nearest source of food and drink, the nearest medical facility, the nearest educational facility and the nearest public building. The map is scaled to ensure that all the markers are displayed at a position that corresponds closely to the physical location of the entity they represent. The user selects a marker and views a video containing information relevant to that place of interest.
