Field Notes Earth is a new app from ESRI which extracts information from the Living Atlas.
Field Notes-Earth is a small sampling of the amazing questions that can be answered from the Esri Living Atlas of the World. To learn more about Esri content, visit http://livingatlas.arcgis.com
This app shares the power of geographic information through a common language to describe the landscape of the Earth.
1. Choose a place, such as your hometown, to learn interesting facts about population, nature, and physical landscapes.
2. Choose a second location to compare and contrast the differences.
These types of comparisons help us to better understand the differences in our landscapes and allow meaningful conversations on how to manage and protect our resources.
I had a play, comparing different places. This could work for different locations which are provided by the teacher for students to compare e.g. different land-use zones, biomes or different locations within a specific country e.g. population densities, urban areas etc.
Here's some screenshots.
