This session will cover how to create quick and easy maps with My Maps, a simple tool for creating interactive and collaborative maps on the web. You’ll also learn how to continue working on your maps with your mobile device, both online and offline. You can choose to share your map with your field team only or to the public or even embed it on your website.
Learn how to use Google Earth to map places of cultural and environmental importance discussed during a field interview. We’ll cover the basics of how to create all the feature types - points, lines, and polygons - for mapping Indigenous knowledge and traditional land use using the Direct-to-Digital method. You’ll also learn how to add further detail to mapped sites using text and images. Finally, we’ll discuss methods of sharing your map with others.
This session will cover how to tell engaging map-based stories about places of cultural and environmental importance that you can easily share online. Then we'll share techniques for presenting in a 3D landscape using Google Earth Pro, including building virtual flyovers and tours to guide your listeners through the landscape you’re discussing, whether your audience is your community, school children, or an official meeting.
This session will cover how to collect Traditional Ecological Knowledge and other information while in the field and sync it to a map, using Android mobile devices and Open Data Kit, an open source platform. Participants will learn how to collect, host and view information in a spreadsheet and on a map. You’ll also learn to build and deploy the survey forms, that can include questions, GPS readings, photos, audio and more.
In this session participants will learn how to bring different types of datasets into Google Earth Pro which will help in understanding your community, such as historical maps, GIS shapefiles, and GPS data.
You’ll also learn how to collect your own 360-degree panoramas and use your immersive photos in your maps and VR tours.
