Telling the "Tale"

ArcGIS StoryMaps is an ArcGIS-based application that allows users to narrate remarkable stories with conventional maps that enlighten and inspire others.

Most people debated that traditional journal articles can sometimes be hard to read. They are often wordier than a presentation and can be viewed as more boring. Conversely, StoryMaps can grab the reader's attention with its various features. In building your StoryMaps, you can use different media types such as pictures, videos, and maps. Story Maps is better than the traditional journal articles by taking students to that place with pictures and updated interactive 2D and 3D maps. Additionally, interacting with a more creative report will make it better and more fun for the students/users.

Therefore, the GIS certification advisory board believes that introducing the ArcGIS StoryMaps to the students provides students' narrative a stronger sense of spatial relationships or visual appeal and credibility to their ideas, but it is also a timely manner.
