STORY MAP ON JOURNEY TOWARDS THE HIMALAYAS
INTRODUCTION
Story maps are interactive maps combined with text and other content to tell a story about the world. Typically story maps are designed for non-technical audiences; thus, story maps include all the elements required to tell a story: web maps text, and multimedia content.IT bring the power of geography and spatial analysis to large audiences. They can serve not only the general public, but also within communities and organizations . My journey started from western side of the country and following many transport trails I reached my destination north eastern part covering 2000 km. My journey was concentrated on the mountaineering, the toughest trek all across India. It was not only hectic but was physical tough and mentality one needs to be prepare for this to reach a height of ft. Here I have tried to compile my Mountaineering Experience in to story map because images speaks louder Then words
OBJECTIVES
Study how to Create story map
To study how web services use to create different application
Explore ArcGIS Online
To study and create web application
To Create simple and effective Story map
To represent my journey in different then traditional way

STUDY AREA AND DATA USED
METHODOLOGY
India is whole study area i can include because journey from Ahmedabad starts at point of Nowhere to know about what kind of course ,place ,atmosphere and peoples over there. As said for INDIA diversity is the unity of this country ,where every state has its own tradition here in our journey I have covered more than 8 states . Which directly leads my thoughts in direction of can spread the power of geography and GIS with effective communicator like ArcGIS . .

Main objective is to create simple and effective story map which covers whole mountaineering journey ,here methodology is as simple with effective output
RESULTS
WEB APPLICATION
Story Map
Web application shows with different features and analysis option using ArcGIS online and geodatabase ,here Web-based applications use any platform, object model, and programming language , A service is a collection of operations accessible through an application-programming interface that allows users to invoke a service, which could be a response to a simple request to create a map and different analysis and functionality here using the ArcGIS tool web app builder we can create application and also we can publish we can be accessible for all the platform like Mobile,Desktop,
