This paper describes a collaborative digital storytelling environment for the navigation and visualization of location-based historical information. The environment combines several technologies including data mining, information visualisation and augmented reality. A number of challenges are involved in this context, such as selection from large volumes of data and data visualization of relevant information through to creating a feelings of immersion and presence in the story. The approach encourages users to tell a story to one another through making them put the elements of the story into the correct order. It uses a combination of a mixed reality HMD and a tablet. The results point to the approach encouraging a sense of flow.
