The content browser — folders, typed item cards, search and the recycle bin
Everything your organisation makes in OrbGIS — maps, layers, dashboards, PDFs — is an item in the Portal. Upload it, file it, find it, share it. Un-delete it when someone gets bin-happy.
The content browser — folders, typed item cards, search and the recycle bin
The Portal is the content backbone of OrbGIS. Web maps, feature layers, tables, dashboards, journeys, print layouts, notebooks, plain documents — 28 item types, all with the same card, the same tags, the same detail page. Browse them in a folder sidebar, filter by type and tag, sort by modified, created, title or rating, and flip between grid and list. Drag a card onto a folder and it moves. Select a whole page and move, download or bin it in one go.
Getting data in is a drop. The upload dialog takes Shapefile, GeoPackage, GeoJSON, KML, GPX, DXF, FlatGeobuf, GeoParquet — even a zipped File GDB — up to 5 GB per file over a resumable upload. Each file becomes its own background job: the dialog closes immediately, a status button in the header tracks the ingest, and a browser notification pings you if you have wandered off to another tab. A single CSV gets a lat/lon column picker (it guesses the columns; you can overrule it), or comes in as a plain attribute table for joins. Spreadsheets do too.
Access is four fixed roles — Viewer, Editor, Publisher, Admin — with a permission matrix enforced as row-level security in the database, not as hidden buttons. Deletes are soft: binned items sit in the recycle bin for 30 days with a visible countdown before the nightly sweeper purges them for real. Maps, dashboards and journeys keep version history you can roll back. And when something is ready to go out, the item page hands you a public link, a short URL and a QR code.
Web maps, feature layers, tables, dashboards, journeys, print layouts, notebooks, WMS/WMTS/WFS references, images, PDFs. Everything is an item with the same card, tags, thumbnail and detail page — no second-class content.
Drop Shapefile, GeoPackage, GeoJSON, KML, GPX, DXF, FlatGeobuf, GeoParquet or a zipped File GDB — up to 5 GB each, resumable. Jobs run in the background behind a header status button, and a browser notification fires when the tab is hidden.
A single CSV opens a lat/lon picker that auto-detects the coordinate columns and counts the points it found before you commit. Or import it as an attribute-only table for joins — XLSX and ODS come in the same way.
Drag a card onto a folder in the sidebar; the drag ghost shrinks so you know it took. Bulk-select to move, download or bin a whole page of items at once.
Full-text search across titles, descriptions and tags with relevance sorting and highlighted hits. Facet by type group — Maps, Layers, Files, Apps, Services — and narrow from there.
Deletes are soft. Every binned item shows its own countdown, restore is one click, and nothing is actually destroyed until you purge it — or the nightly sweeper does, after 30 days.
Viewer, Editor, Publisher, Admin — a fixed permission matrix that runs as row-level security in Postgres, because hiding a button is not a security model. Email invites, member management and an org-wide activity log round it out.
Drag files into the upload dialog — each becomes its own background job. Close the dialog and keep working; the header button tracks every ingest.
Give the item a title, description, tags and a thumbnail on its detail page, then drag it into a folder. Or bulk-move fifty at once.
Search by name, tag or description; filter by type; sort by modified, created, title or rating. Grid or list, your call.
Published items get a public link, a short URL and a scannable QR code straight from the item page. Who can publish is a role, not a habit.
Restore a binned item any time within 30 days, or roll a map, dashboard or journey back to an earlier version — filtered by who saved it.
No demo call. No sales funnel. Just sign up and start mapping.
