Introducing the GeoLibre R package! GeoLibre already runs as a desktop app, a web app, and a Jupyter widget. Now it runs in R too. The new geolibre R package is an htmlwidgets interface that embeds the full GeoLibre GIS in the RStudio Viewer, Quarto, R Markdown, and Shiny. What you get: - A real GIS, not a static map. Layer panel, styling, drawing tools, identify, and the processing toolbox are all there inside your R session. - Bring your own data. `sf` objects, GeoJSON, CSV and XY tables, Shapefile, GeoPackage, FlatGeobuf, GeoParquet, KML, Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF, XYZ, WMS, WMTS, WFS, PMTiles, vector tiles, 3D Tiles, and even video overlays. - Shiny, in both directions. `geolibre_proxy()` updates a live map without rebuilding it, and drawn features, selected features, identify results, and the current view come back as Shiny inputs. You can even run processing algorithms from the server. The package is on GitHub now while the first CRAN submission is prepared. Try it out - R package website: - Live interactive example: - Source: - GeoLibre Web: - Documentation: #RStats #GIS #Geospatial #OpenSource #Shiny #MapLibre #GeoLibre

Planetary Mapping in the Browser with GeoLibre! Web mapping just left Earth orbit. GeoLibre, the open-source cloud-native GIS platform, now maps nine more worlds beyond Mars and the Moon: - Mercury - Venus - Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto (Jupiter's Galilean moons) - Titan (Saturn's largest moon) - Pluto and Charon You can browse each one right in your browser, with no install required. A few things I'm excited about under the hood: The imagery comes from USGS Astrogeology, which publishes these mosaics only in an equirectangular projection. MapLibre renders Web Mercator, so GeoLibre reprojects each tile to Web Mercator on the fly at the edge, with no pre-processing and no giant downloads. Every body carries its own radius. Switch to the Moon or Pluto and your distance, area, and scale-bar measurements use that world's geometry instead of Earth's, so the numbers are actually right. A planet switcher in the Layers panel lets you hop between Earth, the Moon, Mars, and the rest with one click. Whether you are teaching planetary science, prototyping a mission map, or just curious what Titan looks like next to a scale bar, it is all a click away. Try it out: - Launch GeoLibre Web: - GitHub: - Documentation: Thanks to USGS Astrogeology and OpenPlanetaryMap for making this data open. #GIS #OpenSource #Geospatial #PlanetaryScience #MapLibre #WebGIS #GeoLibre #Astronomy

GeoLibre v2.3.0 is here! GeoLibre is a free and open-source, lightweight, cloud-native GIS platform for visualizing, exploring, and analyzing geospatial data. It runs everywhere you do, in the web browser, on the desktop, on mobile, and inside Jupyter notebooks, all while keeping your data local and private. This release brings a legend that writes itself from your symbology, a new GeoLens catalog browser, and 200+ GeoLibre Rust geoprocessing tools running entirely in the browser. What's new in v2.3.0 - Automatic on-map Legend: the legend builds itself from your visible layers, with class rows for graduated, categorized, rule-based, and expression styling, gradient bars for heatmaps and raster colormaps, and land-cover labels from a Raster Attribute Table. Rename, hide, reorder, or add your own entries, and it saves with the project. - Symbology swatches in the Layers panel: every row shows a dot, line, square, or image glyph in the layer's own color, so a tall layer stack reads at a glance. - GeoLens catalog browser: connect to a self-hosted GeoLens server, search its catalog, and add datasets as vector tiles, GeoJSON, or rendered raster tiles. - Emerging Hot Spot Analysis: build a space-time cube from timestamped points and classify every cell as a new, intensifying, persistent, diminishing, sporadic, oscillating, or historical hot or cold spot, all client side. - Mosaic time series: the Time Slider now steps through MosaicJSON and STAC collections of many COGs per date, on either a GPU or a WASM rendering engine. - Copy and paste layer styles: give a whole set of layers one consistent look without restyling each in turn. - Shareable tool links: deep-link any Whitebox tool with a ?tool= URL that opens the dialog preselected and pre-fills the form, with a Copy link button to build it for you. - Smarter data loading: pick which layers to load from a multi-layer GeoPackage, import CSVs whose coordinates are in any projected CRS, and read a raster's real CRS, pixel size, and extent from the metadata dialog. - Multiple AI profiles: define several provider, model, and credential setups, pick a default, and switch between them from the assistant panel.

GeoLibre v2.5.0 is here! GeoLibre is a free and open-source, lightweight, cloud-native GIS platform for visualizing, exploring, and analyzing geospatial data. It runs everywhere you do, in the web browser, on the desktop, on mobile, and inside Jupyter notebooks, all while keeping your data local and private. This release is about meeting you where your work already lives: open your QGIS and ArcGIS Pro projects directly, talk to your team on the map itself, explore hyperspectral imagery as a 3D cube, work in discrete global grids, and host sharing and live collaboration on your own server. It is also the most community-driven release so far: 121 pull requests and 52 issues closed in 8 days, from 14 contributors, 12 of whom sent their first contribution to GeoLibre in this cycle. Thank you all. What's new in v2.5.0 - Comments on the map: pin a comment to any location or feature, reply in a thread, resolve it when it is handled. - Live collaboration, on your own server: several people can open the same session and see each other's edits, cursors, and comments in real time. - QGIS and ArcGIS Pro project import: open a .qgs, .qgz, .aprx, or .mapx and get the layers. - Discrete global grids: three new DGGS plugins (A5, DGGRID, and DGGAL) render and identify cells over the current view, plus DGGS Generator, Binning, and Compact processing tools. - Hyperspectral data you can actually read: local NetCDF and HDF grids are colormapped in the browser, a cube gets an RGB band combination picked by wavelength. - Spectral profiles from a click: identify a pixel to chart its spectrum against wavelength. - Smart styling on add: every new layer arrives with its own color and geometry-appropriate sizing, and a Style suggestions strip offers one-click renderers. - Autosave, crash recovery, and project history, plus an Elements panel for managing every annotation from a list, a Layer Library for saving a fully configured layer and re-adding it to any later project, and project duplication and templates. - GeoLibre Desktop is on the Mac App Store, and Thai brings the shipped locales to 16 languages besides English, all at 100% coverage.

It runs everywhere you do, in the web browser, on the desktop, on mobile, and inside Jupyter notebooks, all while keeping your data local and private. This release is about meeting you where your work already lives: open your QGIS and ArcGIS Pro projects directly, talk to your team on the map itself, explore hyperspectral imagery as a 3D cube, work in discrete global grids, and host sharing and live collaboration on your own server. It is also the most community-driven release so far: 121 pull requests and 52 issues closed in 8 days, from 14 contributors, 12 of whom sent their first contribution to GeoLibre in this cycle. Thank you all. What's new in v2.5.0 - Comments on the map: pin a comment to any location or feature, reply in a thread, resolve it when it is handled. - Live collaboration, on your own server: several people can open the same session and see each other's edits, cursors, and comments in real time. - QGIS and ArcGIS Pro project import: open a .qgs, .qgz, .aprx, or .mapx and get the layers. - Discrete global grids: three new DGGS plugins (A5, DGGRID, and DGGAL) render and identify cells over the current view, plus DGGS Generator, Binning, and Compact processing tools. - Hyperspectral data you can actually read: local NetCDF and HDF grids are colormapped in the browser, a cube gets an RGB band combination picked by wavelength. - Spectral profiles from a click: identify a pixel to chart its spectrum against wavelength. - Smart styling on add: every new layer arrives with its own color and geometry-appropriate sizing, and a Style suggestions strip offers one-click renderers. - Autosave, crash recovery, and project history, plus an Elements panel for managing every annotation from a list, a Layer Library for saving a fully configured layer and re-adding it to any later project, and project duplication and templates. - GeoLibre Desktop is on the Mac App Store, and Thai brings the shipped locales to 16 languages besides English, all at 100% coverage.
