Post #2: Driftscape (app)

https://www.driftscape.com/home

This app provides information place, event, and tour information related to First Nations in Toronto as a map overlay (it provides other non-First Nations overlays as well, which can be toggled on and off).

This app is useful to understand the oft-ignored local First Nations history, geography, and culture of Toronto, and also provides a great (app or map) template for other places outside of Toronto. I think situating oneself in this way is important when beginning research as the local features predominantly in much of Indigenous literature.
