Research Guides: Geographic Information Systems (GIS): ArcGIS (ESRI)

StoryMaps

ArcGIS StoryMaps helps you tell remarkable stories with custom maps that inform and inspire.

A story can effect change, influence opinion, and create awareness—and maps are an integral part of storytelling. ArcGIS StoryMaps can give your narrative a stronger sense of place, illustrate spatial relationships, and add visual appeal and credibility to your ideas. Use the simple map maker to create custom maps to enhance your digital storytelling. Or add text, photos, and videos to your existing ArcGIS web maps and web scenes to create an interactive narrative that's easy to publish and share.

ArcGIS Software - free for students
The “student copy” (or student trial or student license) of ArcGIS is actually identical to the full-capacity, professional copy of ArcGIS which is distributed to faculty and staff. The student copy is simply limited in its distribution to students. The license expires June 30th of each year.
UCI's ArcGIS Online Portal
Under the Enterprise Login menu, select Login with your UCInetID and an account will be created for you automatically. Note: if you don't have access to all the features make sure that you are logging in through UCI and not a free account. Our ArcGIS organization's URL is UCirvine. You can also access the portal using the Pro version of ArcGIS. Both the Pro & Desktop versions of ArcGIS are available for download on the OIT Licenses page. Everyone receives 100 credits, but if you need more please open an OIT ticket and provide a reason why.
