Kinni River Recreation - Story Map Series

Johnathan Van Roekel, Dr. Charles Rader and Dr. Christopher Holtkamp (CAFES)

This ArcGIS Online Story Map Series was a partnership effort between the Kinnickinnic Corridor Collaborative and the KRLT. Through an interactive approach, this map was designed to help facilitate conversation around river use, recreation, and maintenance in the Kinnickinnic Watershed.  It also provides a great resource for residents and visitors alike to search and discover new places to explore the beauty of the region.  I am proud of the result and feel more confident with my skills in ArcGIS Software and online mapping capabilities as well as how to negotiate the varying desires of multiple stakeholder groups. To view the Story Map, Kinni River Recreation – Water Access, please follow this link.
