The team at the University of Connecticut’s Center for Land Use Education and Research (CLEAR) has decades of experience making maps and geospatial data available to the public in simple and accessible ways. As technology has evolved and advanced, the tools for sharing maps on the internet have also changed. From the early days of web mapping using ArcIMS, Esri Flex Viewer and more recently the Web AppBuilder and others, the CLEAR team has kept up with the changing ways in which maps are delivered to diverse audiences. This presentation will cover how we are working to manage the changing trends as we migrate dozens of viewers and websites to Esri’s latest platform – Experience Builder. We’ll talk about what has worked well for us so far (and what hasn’t) and share ideas about how to make the migration easier for those thinking of taking the leap to the next generation of web mapping.

I make maps and teach others how to make maps, too. Sometimes I make maps that help land use decision makers make good choices. That's it in a nutshell.
