Engaging the public during the current COVID-19 crisis has been difficult. By using ArcGIS story maps to engage public stakeholder groups project teams can relay large amounts of information to stakeholders and other groups in a graphical, non-linear format that is easy to follow and interactive. Story maps allow the team to link their project to the many public and private GIS databases available such as vehicle traffic and crashes, socioeconomic, population, zoning, environmental, and other planning related sources.

COVID-19 is a humanitarian challenge that has changed the way we occupy physical space. As the country and the world cautiously steps into business as usual, planners are facing a new opportunity to redesign our spaces for this reality.
