The Gettysburg National Military Park is one of the most visited national parks in the United States. This suite of interactive and media-rich installations created for the park's museum presents the historical significance and meaning of the Battle of Gettysburg within the greater context of the Civil War. Diverse media experiences range from game-like challenges to in-depth database-driven resources; from large-scale passive presentations to multi-user interactives and individual stations—there is something to engage individuals and groups, young and old, experts and the uninitiated.

Visitors are able to understand the actual movements of troops during the three days of the battle, as well as the subsequent monuments dedicated to military units, by exploring sophisticated interactive maps. Younger audiences can test their skills in deciphering signals and bugle calls, while the political seeds of the war are exposed in detail for visitors that desire a broader understanding of the early figures and texts important in sparking off the Civil War. Apart from the main exhibit area, a resource room offers a subset of interactives with more access to texts and links to historical sources for those researchers and visitors interested in deep investigations into the war.
