Story Map

An easy way to show spatial information highlighting a trip is to create an online story map. ESRI provides the online resources needed to do just that. In this blog post, I will walk you through the steps of creating an informative story map.

To begin you need to create an ESRI ArcGIS.com login account. ESRI offers a free 30 day trial on their website. To access the login page, visit this link: https://www.arcgis.com/home/signin.html
If a longer account is needed, consult your schools geospatial facilitator.

Once your account has been created, you can begin accessing the software to create a story map. ESRI offers a number of intuitive layout designs that you can choose depending on your applications. For my story map I used the basic map tour layout seen below.
