Create an account

Before you start#

All you need is a work email address. Signing up creates a new organization with you as its administrator. If your team already uses OrbGIS, don’t sign up here — ask an admin to invite you instead, so you join their organization.

Sign up#

1. Open the sign-up page

   Go to app.orbgis.se and choose Create one under the sign-in form (or follow any “Start free” link on this site).

2. Fill in the form

   Enter your Organization name, Your name, Work email and a Password of at least 10 characters, then confirm the password and press Create account.

3. Confirm your email

   OrbGIS sends a confirmation link to the address you entered. Click it to verify the account — you can’t sign in until you do.

4. Land in your portal

   After confirming you’re signed in at app.orbgis.se/portal — your organization’s home. From here you can upload data, build your first map and invite your team.

What sign-up creates#

• Your organization, with a URL slug derived from its name — for example “Acme GIS” becomes acme-gis. Published apps later live on acme-gis.orbgis.se; the portal itself is always app.orbgis.se.
• The four fixed roles — Admin, Publisher, Editor and Viewer. See Roles & privileges.
• Your membership as the organization’s Admin, with full access to settings, members and content.

Signing in and resetting your password#

Sign in at app.orbgis.se with your email and password. If you’ve forgotten the password, use Forgot password? on the sign-in page — OrbGIS emails you a reset link.
