User Story Mapping

A user story map helps you arrange user stories into a useful model for understanding the functionality of a system, identifying holes and omissions in your backlog, and effectively plan releases that deliver value to users and business with through releases.

Aims

1. Understand the problem to be solved
2. Create common understanding of the problem between stake holders.
3. Prioritize the tasks required to reach a specified goal

Accessibility and Combination of tools

At least a few people to participate are needed in order to make for a realistic story mapping session. A graphing tool such as LucidChart is possibly nice to make the cards. But it can also be done with simple sticky notes, if an offline environment is preferred.
