Online Mapping


Online mapping is another fun and useful application. Here is a fast and crude example, created from public information:  search for “Storm King Fire” at www.arcgis.com/home.   To learn how to do this, start at www.arcgis.com/home  and create your own personal account log in (not a 30 day free trail of ArcGIS subscription, but “Create a personal account”).

Start at the bottom of the list, Using an ArcGIS online personal account.
Then move up to working with web maps, making a map, and more.

Once these basics are handled you will be able to create their own map.  This would be a great take-away from our institute.
