MapMaker Launch Guide
We teamed up with Esri to create a reimagined version of National Geographic MapMaker that is more accessible, more flexible and more relevant. The new MapMaker 4.0 is available now for you to rebuild your maps and access all of the exciting new features.
We recommend that you download any maps or content you have saved on the existing MapMaker 2.0 before June 2024 and create an account with Esri to begin creating new content on the reimagined MapMaker 4.0 tool. If you have any other questions, please view our support center.
