The Municipality of Kings County was looking for a tool to view outdoor art distributed throughout Kings County on a map. Strollopia, a mapping tool we developed, invites users to build their own maps and populate them with their own content. Growing out of initial work we did on context aware content management, we developed a geo-located CMS in the form of an API that manages content tied to a specific point on the earth. The backend tracks how users interact with the content and manages comments that they have at any point.

The American Geographic Society recognized our early efforts to provide a community based tool to map small geographies and provide rich location based content to visitors wishing to explore on their own. We have launched custom apps for towns, outdoor clubs, historical societies or other organizations with outdoor assets that they would like to share.
