Mapping images provides students an opportunity to work with images and other media to create meaningful geo-visualizations.
The following example is from the Library of Congress: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/99613600/
Understanding the circumstances behind the "making" of an iconic image can be a powerful way for students to evaluate images and their sources.
The ability to present an image with multiple levels of zoom allows faculty to effectively teach with maps and other media.
Annotating images may be one of the most accessible ways to help students interpret and analyze the meanings of images and visual media.
StoryMaps combine images, maps, video and text to create rich digital narratives allowing students to explore topics from multiple perspectives.
Mapping libraries such as Leaflet can be utilized to generate powerful comparisons between maps and/or other types of images.
