If you love soccer and you love construction, you’re in for a treat.

California-based Esri, a supplier of Geographic Information System software, paired up with Business Insider and launched an interactive map that gives viewers a satellite perspective of Brazil’s many new stadiums.

Though the construction of these stadiums (in fact, Brazil’s bid to host the World Cup in general) was met with much controversy, Business Insider reports that there are “a few gems in architecture, sustainability and design [that] have emerged.”

The complete, interactive map can be found here.
