“The new platform for the Tennessee River Valley Mapguide website offers easy access to valuable tourism information that highlights all there is to see and do in the seven-state region,” said Julie Graham, spokesperson for the TRV Stewardship Council. “While indoor attractions across the United States are closed during this time of self-quarantine, many outdoor recreation areas are remaining open.

To redesign and launch the website, TRV Stewardship Council (states represented are: Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia) worked with Elebase, a Denver, Colo.-based company that offers backend services for web and mobile applications via API.

With an area covering 41,028-square-miles, the Tennessee River Valley is home to vibrant river cites, 49 lakes, hundreds of waterfalls, vineyards, trails, large tracts of public recreational lands and small, rural communities. The Tennessee River Valley Geotourism MapGuide is designed to showcase to national and international audiences the natural, cultural and historic attractions that define the Tennessee River Valley region. It best serves small local businesses by providing a marketing tool to reach travelers worldwide. “The new platform offers users responsive interactive experiences with the mapguide, which was not available on all mobile devices with the previous platform,” added Graham.

The Tennessee River Valley Mapguide is one of only 17 geotourism mapguides worldwide to date and joins crownofthecontinent.net and sierranevadageotourism.org in presenting their websites to the world. For more information, visit TennesseeRiverValleyGeoTourism.org. Like us on Facebook.
