November 15 is GIS Day

Today you are going to explore ESRI StoryMap Apps created by ArcGIS Online. Soon, you will be using ArcGIS Online to create your own StoryMap Applications. After exploring the StoryMap Gallery, you will be creating a web page that shows your favorite example of the different types of StoryMaps.

First Visit a few samples of the Custom StoryMaps created by the ESRI StoryMap teams. The Maps that you will view under the Custom Tab are samples of a Story Map App that have been customized with JavaScript and CSS.

You can also search Story Maps by Subject or Industry category. Make sure that you press the RESET button each time that you want to start a new search.


Use the ESRI STORY Map Gallery portal to answer your questions:
