ArcGIS StoryMaps

StoryMaps is an application within ArcGIS, a geographic information system software from Esri, with numerous functions and applications.  You have free access to it via ArcGIS Online as an Oxy student, faculty, or staff!

StoryMaps is a digital storytelling tool that uses text, maps, embedded content, multimedia, and more to create an interactive narrative that can illustrate the results of a research project, present a historical chronology, function as an interactive exhibit, or provide geographic context to any project.  Once created, a StoryMap can have different levels of privacy (you alone, your organization, or everyone) and it can be shared on socal media or via embed codes or links.
