Individually and together the geoglyphs form a unique set of drawings upon the Earth stretching around the globe, connecting people with history and heritage.

Of particular note is the site in Cappadocia, Turkey, where in September 2011 Rogers completed the "Time and Space" geoglyph park. The thirteen structures comprise more than 10,500 tons of stone and, in total, the walls measure approximately 4 miles in length. The infrastructures that lie furthest apart are separated by a distance of 1.50 miles.
