StarMap
StarMap is an open research initiative focused on building scalable, high-performance systems for visualizing and analyzing massive geospatial datasets.
Alongside the core research effort, StarMap includes Starlet, a lightweight interface and codebase for practical exploration workflows, as well as a hands-on workshop introducing participants to geospatial visualization and StarMap tooling.

Explore the Map
Pan and zoom an interactive map served straight from StarMap's pre-generated vector-tile pyramid. Pick a dataset, color it by any attribute — as discrete categories or a continuous gradient — and choose a label to display on the map.
