Atlas

Atlas is a modern, all-in-one map builder and browser-based Geographic Information System (GIS) platform designed to make working with spatial data simpler and faster. It replaces old, clunky GIS software with an intuitive, accessible interface that empowers anyone to visualize, automate, and build with geospatial data. Whether you're mapping customer locations, optimizing sales territories, or analyzing environmental trends, Atlas provides the tools to turn raw location data into actionable insights, all within a single collaborative application.

How to use Atlas

Getting started with Atlas is a straightforward process designed for users of all skill levels:

1. Sign Up & Create a Workspace: Begin by signing up for a free account. Once registered, you can create or join a workspace, which is a collaborative hub for your projects, files, and team members.
2. Import Your Data: Atlas supports over 20 file formats, including CSV, GeoJSON, KML, and Shapefile. You can also connect directly to remote datasets via WMS, WMTS, and XYZ servers, or enrich your data by querying open sources like OpenStreetMap and Overture.
3. Visualize and Style Your Map: Once your data is imported, you can create a wide variety of maps. Build thematic maps like choropleths to show patterns, heatmaps to visualize density, or contour maps for elevation data. Customize basemaps, color palettes, and icons to match your brand or story.
4. Perform Spatial Analysis: Access a library of over 50 powerful analysis tools without needing to be a GIS expert. Run analyses such as travel time, buffer zones, Voronoi diagrams, spatial joins, and intersection analysis to uncover deeper relationships in your data.
5. Collaborate and Share: Atlas is built for teamwork. Share your maps publicly via a simple link, where viewers and commenters can join for free. You can also embed your interactive maps directly into websites, blogs, or dashboards to engage stakeholders and the community.
