What is the GeoApps GIS viewer?

GeoApps Viewer is the web GIS your organisation actually opens: maps, object info, analysis and sharing in the browser. No desktop install, no extra licences per viewer.

Specialists can keep working in QGIS or ArcGIS Pro. Viewer is the layer for colleagues, policymakers and project teams, with user management, editing, analysis and reporting in one place.

Connect national data portals, your own services and files (WMS, WMTS, WFS, GeoJSON, Shapefile, GeoPackage), plus extras such as Cyclomedia StreetSmart or 3D, in a single map.

GIS architecture

Viewer is the Web GIS layer

Desktop GIS (QGIS or ArcGIS Pro) and databases & services stay in place. Viewer publishes maps to teams, decision-makers and external users, without everyone needing desktop GIS.

Web GIS · GeoApps

Maps, dashboards, fieldwork and organization-wide access

Desktop GIS

QGIS or ArcGIS Pro for specialist data processing and analysis

Databases & services

PostgreSQL, APIs and OGC / ArcGIS services from and into GeoApps

Your GIS architecture stays modular, desktop, data and Web GIS reinforce each other.

Discover why organizations choose GeoApps Viewer

Available in the browser, alongside QGIS and open standards. Viewer makes maps available to the whole organization, without desktop GIS for everyone.

Web-based and instantly available

No installation required. Open your GIS viewer in the browser on desktop, tablet or smartphone, always with the latest maps and data.

Open standards, including OGC

Connect WMS, WMTS, WFS, national data portals and your own sources in one viewer. GeoApps supports those open specifications; it is not an OGC product or member.

Alongside QGIS, not instead of it

Specialists keep analysing in QGIS. Viewer publishes the same data and maps to teams, decision-makers and external users. A QGIS plugin moves work between desktop and web.

More insight with powerful visualizations

Analyze your data with 3D views, object information, aerial imagery and Street View for faster insight and better decisions.

Proven in complex public-sector and engineering environments

Organizations across government and engineering use GeoApps for Web GIS, from district atlases to custom applications built on open standards.
