Storytelling with
Maps: ESRI GIS Live Training Seminars
ESRI, the leading publisher
of GIS software, is offering a free training seminar about how to create and
publish story maps. Bern Szukalski and
Rupert Essinger will present “Telling Your Story with ESRI Story Maps” on May 7
at noon, 2:00, and 6:00 pm Eastern time.
From ESRI:
ESRI story maps are an exciting
and popular feature of the ArcGIS platform that combine maps, photos, text, and
other media, in a single interactive application. Any topic or project that
includes a map can be a story map. Their engaging, easy- and fun-to-use format
makes story maps especially ideal for public outreach, stakeholder engagement,
and GIS project presentations. In this seminar, attendees will learn about ESRI
application templates that simplify story map creation and require no coding.
The presenters will discuss how to choose the best template for a project and
the steps to create a compelling story map from a template.
After
viewing this seminar, you will understand how to: Access the Story Maps Gallery to find
inspiration; select a suitable story map template to showcase your story; and
get started using the three most popular story map application templates.
The
Ball State University Libraries’ GIS Research and Map Collection (GRMC) on the
second floor of Bracken Library offers access to GIS software and online GIS
tutorials, datasets, online mapping applications, in-house GIS data, and
one-on-one assistance from the GIS Specialist.
