Hi Everyone, I am completely new to ARCGIS and am trying to find a nice solution for the following:

I am trying to create a publicly accessible (and preferably free) map that displays information on a number of civl works contracts in a project (e.g. name of contractor, amount, contract signature date) etc and next to it a map with geotagged photos that document the work (e.g, picture of new road segment or new equipment purchased). I really like StoryMaps multiple layers with tabs but for some reason I cannot add the geotagged photos to the map corresponding to each contract. Would anyone know how to do this? Or is there a much better solution out there for what I am looking for? Thank you very much for any help!

The Crowdsourced Beta doesn't seem to use the geotag off your uploaded photos either. Maybe it's not possible???

Hi Nora,

Welcome to the Story Maps community!

Sounds like the best app for you might be a Map Tour, so I would start there. Map Tour presents a bit of info about a place along with a photo and its location on a map. It will read geotags from your photos. You can upload your photos right to the map tour or put them on Flickr first and point to them from your map tour. Check out the link below to learn more and to build one.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes!

Is there an option to only import the geotagged photo to an other map than the Map tour with the free version.
And then i want to add some fields...
