Free Tools
Geospatial Tools for Everyone
We're building free, open tools that make professional geospatial work accessible to small teams. No expensive software licenses. No GIS degree required.
Map Digitizer
Turn screenshots of zoning maps, planning documents, or any color-coded map image into georeferenced GeoJSON. Upload an image, set control points to align it with real-world coordinates, and download export-ready data for your GIS software.
Note: This is a free tool—it may take 20-30 seconds to wake up on first load.
Automatic Street Detection
OCR reads street names directly from your map image and finds intersections for georeferencing.
Smart Geocoding
Uses OpenStreetMap to convert detected intersections into real-world coordinates.
Color-Based Zone Detection
HSV analysis identifies zoning areas by color—residential, commercial, industrial, and more.
Multiple Export Formats
Download as GeoJSON, Shapefile, KML, or KMZ for use in any GIS platform.
Featured Project
An example of the kind of work we do—translating complex data into accessible, shareable stories.
Montana Airport Economic Impact Study
In partnership with Zenith Economics and the MSU Geospatial Core Facility, we mapped the economic contributions of airports across Montana. This StoryMap blends survey data, aviation infrastructure, and regional workforce trends to keep legislators and funding partners aligned.
- Statewide airport inventory tied to passenger counts and capital investments
- Economic impact rollups that translate spatial analysis into policy-ready briefs
- ArcGIS StoryMap delivery so rural and urban stakeholders share the same narrative
Need Something Custom?
These free tools are just a taste of what we build. If your team needs a custom workflow, interactive dashboard, or specialized analysis—let's talk.
