 ===== Story maps as representation of spatial contents  =====
-Story maps are digital map applications which are characterized by being interactive and able to combine different types of media. Story maps serve to present specific content or subject matter to a wider audience via the Internet. The “stories“ that they tell through a series of thematic maps, data layers and multimedia applications can serve to visualize various aspects such as individual narratives, political statements or the presentation of factual/subject-specific content.

Story maps serve to present and communicate specific content or subject matter to a wider audience via the Internet. The “stories“ that they tell through a series of thematic maps, data layers and multimedia embeds can serve to visualize various aspects such as individual narratives, political statements or the presentation of factual/subject-specific content.
 Different types of story maps can be used for different purposes (see M01-1). Depending on the type of story map a user wishes to create, there are more or less guided “tours” of ready-made map templates which can be used. These can include certain points or areas of interest, which can also be supplemented with further information. This allows map makers to determine which information is presented how and in which order. These are the features currently available:

 One advantage story maps have over more “traditional” maps is that story maps can continuously be updated. Furthermore, they enable independent work and interactions with the map, which may enhance users’ interest and willingness to learn.

+Although there is a wide range of possible applications and tools for digital story telling, we are using ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS StoryMap in our summerschool teaching as well as in our university courses. ESRI was the first provider of digital story-telling and continously developed it further. This experience makes it comfortable for users.
