Many municipalities and provinces still run aerial and ortho imagery — often as ECW or large GeoTIFFs — alongside street-level imagery on old, on-premises servers. Maintenance is getting harder: data volumes and user numbers grow, and performance expectations rise. Hardware and software more than 10 years old is no longer the right approach.
One central platform for aerial imagery, orthophotos and ECW datasets, plus street views: no more scattered servers, no licence or update hassle.
From ECW and GeoTIFF to other raster formats: we host your aerial and ortho imagery, optimize it and publish directly in your viewer at a fair price. Always up to date and scalable.
Connect street-level imagery (e.g. Cyclomedia, Street View) in the same viewer. One environment for maps, aerial and street-level views.
We handle setup and maintenance. You supply data or we collect it; your team works directly in GeoApps and QGIS.
Old setups with separate servers, your own tile stacks or outdated viewers cost time and money. With GeoApps you host everything in the cloud: aerial and orthophotos become map layers immediately, street imagery connects easily. One platform, one place to manage, always up to date.
No managing your own servers, no arranging backups or updates. Your data lives in a Dutch datacentre in Groningen, secure and meeting high standards for availability and privacy. You pay for use, not for hardware.
WMS, WMTS, WFS where relevant. No vendor lock-in. Connect QGIS, GeoApps Viewer, MapTour and your own apps. Street and aerial imagery, ECW stacks and ortho rasters in one map.
Our service is built for high performance and intensive use. Smart caching and an optimised cloud architecture keep viewers and services fast and stable, even with large datasets and many concurrent users. Vendor independence is a key principle: imagery is delivered via open standards and works with all common GIS viewers.
At the point of replacement, we offer an attractive alternative. Instead of reinvesting in your own image server, municipalities and provinces can switch to a fully managed SaaS service for hosting and publishing aerial imagery, ECW data and map layers. That removes the need for your own hardware, complex server setups and licences. You get a fixed annual subscription price, with no surprise replacement or depreciation costs. Infrastructure scales automatically with growing data and usage, turning an unavoidable investment into lasting savings and a future-proof solution.
