“I know not that I can offer on the occasion any

suggestions not likely to occur to the Committee. Were I tohazard one, it would be in favour of adding to Reading,

Writing, & Arithmetic, to which the instruction of the poor,

is commonly limited, some knowledge of Geography; such

as can easily be conveyed by a Globe & Maps…No

information seems better calculated to expand the mind

and gratify curiosity than what would thus be imparted.”  

James Madison, 1822

StoryLayers are designed to be open data that can

be ‘version edited’ much like a Wikipedia page

MapStories take one or multiple StoryLayers and add narrative

elements like text, photo and video to comprise a particularPERSPECTIVE about some phenomena…MapStories can be

shared much like a YouTube video
