Workshop: Getting Creative with Google My Maps Discover how to use the free Google My Maps platform as a versatile tool for planning, recording, sharing and bringing places to life. This practical, hands-on workshop will explore the many ways My Maps can be used, from creating interactive walks and trails enriched with photographs, videos, YouTube clips and website links, to mapping wildlife sightings, recording survey information and supporting project planning. We'll also look at practical applications such as mapping site features, identifying hazards, recording maintenance issues, and creating shared maps for teams and volunteers, while understanding how to manage privacy settings and permissions. We'll also explore how My Maps can be used to capture and share local heritage, memories, oral histories and community stories, creating rich place-based experiences that connect people with the landscapes, history and heritage around them.
