Embed Videos into Story Map pop-ups

[TonyDamiano]

Hello,

Is it possible to embed videos into ArcGIS Online Story Map pop ups? If so, has anyone seen any good tutorials or examples?

Thanks,

Tony

There is no direct support for this currently.  It's a good idea, however.

Thanks.

Hi Tony,

Yes - it is possible. I have actually written a tutorial and completed a web mapping application and web map demonstrating several options when embedding audio or video content. You can find the document and the links to the example maps at the location below:

As I have noted in Marks Thread, make sure to not open your map in google chrome. You will run into the problem that the youtube video will stay on your screen even after closing the pop-up box. Just an FYI!

Also, here are two examples of customized map tour story maps that present some multi-media content.

This one simply adds video and audio links to the captions in the tour:

This one replaces the photos in the map tour with videos:

Here's a link to their main website...you may be able to contact them to see how they made the tour.
