Webinar: Creating Custom Map Data Layers
We are pleased to invite you to an online webinar in which two of our spatial experts will talk about how to turn raw GIS data into custom map data layers.
Thursday, June 15
10:00 am CET
Wojciech Tomaszewski, our Technical Architect and Marta Krawczyk, our Geospatial Engineer will share their own experiences of preparing a custom postal codes map layer for the Trans.eu, Europe’s 2nd largest logistics platform.
We will walk you through every crucial step involved in delivering custom map data layers to your end-users: from sourcing and analyzing the required data, enhancing it, and preparing for visualization to styling the actual map layer. Most of the decisions they had to make throughout the project were quite universal and may be useful when creating any custom map data layer.
What to expect:
Introduction to building custom map data layers, and where you should start;
How to analyze your use case and create concrete data layers specifications;
How RST approached building a custom postal codes layer for Trans.eu;
Where to start sourcing spatial data, and whether open-source data is good enough;
How to prepare raw data and build a scalable geospatial database to power your data layers;
How to automate data updates, and not disrupt your system;
Styling tips and tricks to make your data layers stand out;
Q&A session at the end.
