Summary

The new Odyssey.js tool is being used by various organizations and media outlets to create interactive map-based stories, such as an investigation into 16 shooting incidents in New York City, a recreation of Charles Darwin's HMS Beagle voyage, and visualizations of Twitter data during the Wimbledon 2014 men's final. Additionally, there are examples of how CARTO maps can be used to tell stories about wildlife, such as Eric the Seagull's breeding season, and how media outlets like The Washington Post are using Odyssey.js to reimagine their content. These projects showcase the potential of interactive storytelling and visualization tools like Odyssey.js and CARTO.
