# Introduction

**Views** in VoxelSpace are pre-configured visual compositions of multiple spatial datasets. They provide a fast, effective way for teams to explore, analyze, and share complex geospatial information.

A View can function as a **carefully curated scene**, set up by one team member for others to review and interact with. Alternatively, Views can be used as **temporary workspaces**—perfect for quick experimentation by combining different datasets on the fly.

</div>**Accessing Views in a Project**

Each project contains a list of Views that are accessible via the **“Views”** tab in the Project Page.

From this section, users can:

- Click on a **View card** to open an existing View
- Click the **“Add View”** button to create a new one

*(See the <span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="mso-field-code: ' HYPERLINK ';">Creating a View</span></span> section for detailed instructions.)*

When a View is opened, it loads in VoxelSpace’s native **OpenGL viewer**, allowing full 3D interaction with the visualized data.
