Odyssey.js is a JavaScript library that helps journalists, bloggers, and web publishers combine narratives with interactive maps and map interactions. It links page elements to slippy map actions and includes a sandbox editor for creating story documents.
Use cases
- create scroll-driven map stories for journalism
- build interactive narrative maps for blog posts
- link page text and media to map movements and interactions
- prototype map storytelling interactions
- publish guided geographic tours with maps
When to choose
- you want to tell a story that combines narrative text with an interactive map
- you need a lightweight browser-based library for map-driven storytelling
- you want a sandbox to prototype map narrative interactions
When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with recent updates and support
- you need general-purpose data visualization rather than map narratives
- you need non-browser or mobile-native map storytelling
