title: Openlayers 3: Select a feature programmatically
body: <p>I am trying to upgrade my system from Openlayers 2 to Openlayers 3 and I have having one particular issue that I cannot seem to figure out.</p>
  
  <p>My application has a grid and a map and when a user clicks on the grid I want to select the relevant point on the map.</p>
  
  <p>In Openlayers 2 I used the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>self.selectControl.select(feature[0]);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I cannot find or understand how to do the same in Openlayers 3. </p>
  
  <p>So to be clear, I have a feature which I have found programmatically and I want to select that feature on a map (programmatically)!</p>
  
  <p>I cannot seem to find anything in the APIs but that might be due to my lack of understanding as I am new to Openlayers.</p>
