Day 4: Remote Sensing - 12 Days of GIS

[AngelaDuran]

Severe droughts and higher temperatures due to climate change are of increasing concern around the world. As regional and global temperatures are significantly increasing, the water levels are dropping in many major water bodies that people, plants, and animals depend on. One way you can raise awareness of this important issue is by visualizing how much lakes are shrinking using satellite imagery and GIS. 

Steps: 

1. Locate the ‘Create a Story’ module for the tutorial: Reveal lake shrinkage due to severe drought 

2. Follow the steps to create your own ArcGIS StoryMap with a swipe tool! 

3. View final result
