What is a StoryMap?
An ArcGIS StoryMap is an interactive presentation that allows you to tell a story using maps, images, audio, videos and text. This companion tool to the mapmaker allows students to pull all the information they have gathered into a fully fleshed-out narrative.To get a feel for how these tools can be used in the classroom, check out our favorite examples below:
- The Living Land: A look at how humans use the Earth's limited land space.
- For the Birds: An immersive story introducing readers to the Alaska Landbird Monitoring Survey: a collaborative, standardized survey for monitoring breeding bird populations across Alaska.
- The Deep: Caladan Oceanic is on a series of expeditions to explore and map the deepest parts of our oceans in unprecedented ways. These stories chronicle their discoveries.
- Coastal Flooding: How coastal communities are being impacted by sea level rise and the data that can help.
