Through the utilization of ArcGIS StoryMaps, municipalities can share and clearly outline project phases and outcomes to keep their residents up to date. StoryMaps integrate immersive narrative media such as photos, videos, audio, interactive timelines, and map tours to give a comprehensive and digestible view of current, ongoing, and complete projects. This helps users visualize the evolving community that they are engaged in every day. Not only are StoryMaps an exciting visual tool to share information, but they require very little post-production maintenance. Interactive maps used in your StoryMaps can update automatically from your currently hosted R/M GIS data.
