Peter Fridrich is already a well-known personality to many people from Slovakia thanks to his hobby, which keeps him busy every day. He takes care of the local historic mining clapper - not only does he wind it manually every day, but he also repaired it. He appeared in a television report on RTVS, and there are also several reports about this remarkable activity on the Internet, such as here<\/A>.<\/P>

When I met him for the first time at the beginning of this year, he expressed the desire to reveal to the public some remarkable features of folk architecture in Banská Hodruša. Banská Hodruša is part of the municipality of Hodruša-Hámre and its technical monuments in the area are on the UNESCO World Natural and Cultural Heritage List.<\/P>

I introduced him to Esri's story map technology and for publishing folk architecture monuments we chose the new generation of story maps, known as ArcGIS Story Map. At the time we used it, it was still in beta version; today this technology is already released. Our main problem was how to publish multiple photos so that they were linked to one monument. We solved this problem using the so-called sidecar, which I write about in another

blog<\/A>.  I hope we managed to solve this problem well and that the story map created by Peter <\/A>will interest you. In any case, it is remarkable that such young people live in Slovakia who take care of our historical heritage and who find time to collect and prepare such interesting stories for the public concerning the surroundings where they grew up.<\/P><\/BODY><\/HTML>
