Have you tried drawing on a map in new Map Viewer? Maybe you've heard it's easy, but not tried it yourself? Well, no more excuses. Here's a GeoInquiry that has students use sketch tools to draw different temperature ocean currents on the map, and it's a great way to try sketching yourself.
Once you've drawn the currents, you can check your work by turning on another layer in the map and comparing its currents to the ones you've drawn.
Basic Sketching Workflow
You can use the same basic workflow to sketch on any map.
NOTE: If you see Sketch instead of Add sketch, a sketch layer is already set up and you can click Sketch to start sketching.
