It\u2019s my pleasure to announce the launch of StoryScape<\/strong><\/a>\u2120 \u2014 a monthly digital magazine celebrating place-based stories and storytellers.<\/p>\n

Since I founded Esri\u2019s StoryMaps team a dozen years ago, I\u2019ve seen place-based storytelling grow from early experiments, to classic Esri Story Maps templates, to an ArcGIS StoryMaps product that combines the functionality of those templates with loads of additional great features \u2014 thanks to the work of talented teams of designers, developers, storytellers, and communicators here at Esri.<\/p>\n

And over that time, you and the storytelling community \u2014 scientists, scholars, students, GIS professionals, and organizations large and small \u2014 have created over 2.5 million stories and counting. You’re authoring impactful pieces about a wide range of geographies and topics, from sustainability and climate change to social justice and humanitarian affairs. Every time I peruse the web for new ArcGIS StoryMaps narratives, I’m thrilled and gratified to encounter inspiring, informative stories published by multiple organizations \u2014 including the Smithsonian Institution, National Geographic Society, The Nature Conservancy, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to name just a handful.<\/p>\n

Those happy discoveries led us to think that we could present a selection of the very best stories, organized by theme, in monthly installments. It was in that context that we created StoryScape.<\/p>\n

I’d like to run through a few StoryScape basics to get started. I hope you\u2019ll be as excited as I am about the impact that StoryScape might have, and the pleasure it will be to read each month’s issue.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2000292,"id":2000292,"title":"StoryScope doodle blog","filename":"StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","filesize":33321,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/story-maps\/announcements\/introducing-storyscape\/storyscope-doodle-blog","alt":"","author":"7221","description":"","caption":"","name":"storyscope-doodle-blog","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1981242,"date":"2023-06-27 15:11:46","modified":"2023-06-27 15:11:46","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1920,"height":166,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog-213x166.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":166,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":40,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":66,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","large-width":1920,"large-height":166,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog-1536x133.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":133,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":166,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog-826x71.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":71,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StoryScope-doodle-blog.jpg","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":166}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

We believe in the power of stories, and the power of maps, to inform, convince, and inspire. We believe that maps \u2014 and a geographic approach to storytelling \u2014 provide insights that add depth, context, and veracity to stories. We\u2019re thrilled that ArcGIS StoryMaps has become a means by which thousands of people are expressing their passions and making their cases for a more just and sustainable world.<\/p>\n

We hope these stories will motivate people to try creating their own stories or, if they\u2019re already using ArcGIS StoryMaps, to experiment with new techniques and narrative devices.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s our hope that you\u2019ll gain inspiration from the stories we feature, and that you\u2019ll use our tools to help point the way to a brighter future.<\/p>\n
