Web Cartography

Style and Control

Our outreach team works with the OpenGeo Suite to build mapping sites for clients around the world. Each application is a unique combination of cartographic needs and user interface needs.

The Right Interface

Attractive, interactive applications aren't the exclusive domain of the desktop anymore. With GeoExt and OpenLayers (part of the OpenGeo Suite), interactive desktop-style applications are possible using pure web technology.

Our development team includes core OpenLayers and GeoExt developers who can craft an attractive custom application to your specifications.

The Right Map

Sometimes the default styles provided by Google or Microsoft don't fit your site, or the kinds of data you are displaying. What to do? Roll your own! With the OpenGeo Suite you can render and serve your own basemap tiles from a high-performance cache.

Check out our rendering of the data from the OpenStreetMap project at the maps.opengeo.org site.
