    Story Map for Stormwater Management Projects at the University of Maryland

    Our group was tasked with retrieving and consolidating datasets/databases and primary accounts of enhanced stormwater management projects. These facilities have been installed across campus over time, so we needed to visualize that data through an ArcGIS StoryMap. We included information about individuals, project descriptions including size and/or area impacted, deliverables, projected impact, geographic locations, and organizations. The Story Map will be used as part of an informational website that displays why these stormwater facilities are important and how similar facilities are necessary elsewhere on campus.
