Deep dives into enterprise GIS integration, open-source mapping, and modern web technologies
Listen to expert discussions on GIS development and enterprise integration
An overview of the MapLibre ArcGIS library, its origins, and the problems it solves for organizations with ArcGIS Enterprise investments. We discuss the architecture, key features, and how it compares to traditional ArcGIS JS API development.
Explore all four authentication methods supported by MapLibre ArcGIS: OAuth2/PKCE, API Keys, generateToken, and App Credentials. Learn when to use each method and best practices for secure credential management in production applications.
A comprehensive guide to all five ESRI layer controls: FeatureService, DynamicMapService, TiledMapService, VectorTileService, and ImageService. Understand the differences, use cases, and performance characteristics of each layer type.
Learn how to load existing ArcGIS WebMaps and WebScenes into MapLibre applications. We discuss the WebMapLoader architecture, layer type dispatching, and handling of complex renderer types.
Discover how COG technology enables efficient raster streaming from cloud storage. We dive into S3 integration, pre-signed URLs, and in-browser raster analytics with Pyodide. Includes live demos of NDVI and hillshade calculations.
Explore point cloud visualization with COPC (Cloud Optimized Point Cloud) format. Learn how deck.gl powers massive LiDAR rendering in the browser with elevation, classification, and intensity color schemes.
Deep dive into DuckDB WASM and its spatial extension. Learn how to load GeoJSON, Shapefile, KML, and other formats in the browser, run spatial SQL queries, and perform geoprocessing operations without any server infrastructure.
Learn about the OrientedImageryControl for displaying 360 panoramas and oblique imagery. We discuss camera parameters, viewing frustum visualization, spatial synchronization between map and image views.
Discover how to create GIS applications without writing JavaScript. We cover YAML configuration syntax, the Python CLI toolchain, and converting existing WebMaps to portable YAML configurations.
A business-focused discussion on the cost benefits of open-source GIS solutions. We compare TCO of ArcGIS JS API vs. MapLibre ArcGIS, discuss vendor lock-in risks, and share success stories from organizations that have made the switch.
Best practices for deploying MapLibre ArcGIS in enterprise environments. Topics include Docker containerization, Kubernetes scaling, reverse proxy configuration, and security considerations for production deployments.
A developer's guide to extending MapLibre ArcGIS. Learn how to create custom controls, integrate with the authentication system, and contribute back to the open-source project.
