Season 2 | Episode 4: Mapping History in Nova Scotia

A Community’s Effort to Make Their History Accessible 

Mapannapolis is a non-profit that maps local cultural history, but this is not a traditional group of historians. It is a silo-busting, cross-discipline, award-nominated group that uses GIS to map structures, graveyards and churches to understand their community better. Guan talks to one of their founders, Heather LeBlanc, about how it works and what it means to the people living in one of the most famous parts of this country, the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia.
