storymap
Classic visualizations usually consist of static representations that allow no or only very limited interaction. Thus they are mostly dependent on a contextualization in written or auditory form. Storymaps are one way to overcome this situation. These are Internet-based applications that combine maps with other modal forms of representation. They allow a dynamic representation of complex issues, which is why they appeal not only to interested laypersons but also to experts.
