ArcGIS StoryMaps helps you tell remarkable stories with custom maps that inform and inspire.
A story can effect change, influence opinion, and create awareness—and maps are an integral part of storytelling. ArcGIS StoryMaps can give your narrative a stronger sense of place, illustrate spatial relationships, and add visual appeal and credibility to your ideas.
Use our simple map maker to create custom maps to enhance your digital storytelling. Or add text, photos, and videos to your existing ArcGIS web maps and web scenes to create an interactive narrative that’s easy to publish and share.
Storytelling with maps has never been easier.
Empower every storyteller
Give storytellers in your organization the ability to create beautiful digital narratives using ArcGIS StoryMaps with the new Storyteller user type. This user type is ideal for people who solely want to make stories by embedding shared ArcGIS content from their organization or by creating their own express maps. Often, people who work in marketing, communications, public relations, or other content creation roles use the Storyteller user type. This user type can only be added to organizations that already have a Creator or GIS Professional user type.
