Digital Visitors and Residents Mapping App

Find out where you (and your users) fall on the Visitors and Residents spectrum with the Digital Visitors and Residents Mapping App. V&R mapping sessions can be an enjoyable exercise for participants, and the resulting maps are often artistically inspired and full of interesting findings. To help with mapping exercises, we developed a mapping app.

The Digital Visitors and Residents Mapping App works with most touchscreen devices such as tablets, phones, and most web browsers. To get started with the app, the three-minute instructional video below or the instructional comic book for comprehensive directions.
