Magrit - Thematic cartography

[en] Magrit is an online thematic mapping application developed by UAR RIATE.
[fr] Magrit est une application de cartographie thmatique dveloppe par l'UAR RIATE.
Basics
- Magrit is a web application for thematic mapping (cartography).
- Everything happens in the browser, so your data never leaves your computer.
- It's intentionally simple (the UI follows the basic steps of map creation).
- It's designed for teaching and learning cartography.
- It lets you import your own geometry dataset (Shapefile, GeoJSON, GML, GeoPackage, etc.) and optionally your tabular file (CSV, XLSX, ODS, etc.).
- We also provide many sample datasets to try out the various representations and become familiar with the application.
- It allows you to render and combine a wide variety of maps: choropleth, proportional symbols, cartogram, discontinuity, smoothed maps, links, etc.
- It allows you to customize the appearance of your maps in various ways.
- It supports all the most popular modern desktop browsers but we also provide a desktop version for Windows, GNU/Linux and MacOS.
- Magrit is written in TypeScript and uses notably solid.js and d3.js libraries as well as various WebAssembly modules (GDAL, GEOS, Contour-wasm, go-cart-wasm).
