For my map, I made the chosen CSV file include the locations I visit most: My dorm, the dining hall I go to, where my classes are, where I get the mail, and where I play music. I chose a heatmap, as the value I’m marking is how long I spend in each place.
iFrames are not supported on this page.I see webmapping, and arcGIS in particular as being incredibly useful in the digital humanities. being able to see and interact with data and information is great for understanding it, and being able to zoom in on maps, as well as read attached information is great for giving a larger picture of context.

I wish I could see your map but it just says “iFrames are not supported on this page”. I want to better understand the heat map component of your map. Is it a heat map based on a seperate layer or is the degree of hear correlated with how often you frequent each place? Sounds cool either way. I also agree with you on your point about context, maps are a great way to put data into real perspective and space.
I see the same that Maddie sees in regards to the “iFrames are not supported on this page”. I think that a heatmap is a very creative way to visualize how much time you spend at each location and I am very interested in seeing what that looks like. I also agree that interactive maps can be very useful and definitely an important part of digital humanities.
I also see “iFrames are not supported on this page.”, but I agree that interactive mapping/ data visualization tools are very effective in providing an understanding of data. The map you described seems really cool, we also frequent the same places so I would have loved to see your collection of data for these locations!
