Geospatial intelligence for the built environment

A browser-based map engine for architects and urban planners: a global basemap with terrain contours and satellite imagery, layered with 25 years of environmental datasets. Read your site's climate, heat, demographic and vegetation context in seconds.

What it does

One map. Every layer of site context.

TERA·ENGINE MAP pairs a fast vector basemap with environmental data normally locked in GIS specialists' tools. Built for design and planning workflows, not data engineering.

Global basemap

A fast vector basemap with terrain contour lines and high-resolution satellite imagery. Pan a single city or the whole planet, smoothly, on any machine.

Environmental data

Climate, heat, vegetation, demography, terrain, land cover, water and built-up: 16 raster layers down to 10 m. Toggle, blend and read values straight off the map.

Site mapping

Draw, edit and style site polygons. Query a point or an area, then export to GeoJSON or a high-resolution PNG for your reports.

AI Copilot

Ask your site questions in plain language. The Copilot reads the same data layers and returns analysis & 25-year trends, with no GIS query writing.

The data library

16 datasets across 8 categories, global coverage, from ~4 km climate down to 10 m land cover. The context a site analysis actually needs, without stitching together a dozen government portals.

Built for urban-scale insight: heat-island and green-space planning, climate resilience, and demographic pressure, with environmental trends you can defend in a design rationale.

Read any site's climate, heat, demographic and vegetation context in seconds, ready to drop straight into your analysis.
