What it is
NextGIS Web is an open-source Web GIS server for managing geospatial data and publishing browser maps. It keeps vector and raster data in a central database that users can work with through a web interface or API. Its map tools support feature editing and sharing, while QGIS Teamspace enables real-time editing of server data with QGIS tools. Built-in version control tracks vector feature changes and allows rollbacks and snapshots. Datasets can be delivered as raster or vector tiles, WMS, WFS, OGC API Features, or through the REST API. Integrations include PostgreSQL, external WMS/WFS/TMS services, and FIRMS fire monitoring. It can run on Linux with Docker, keeping data within a customer's infrastructure, or use cloud plans with US, EU, and APAC regions. The Free cloud plan allows one user, 15 layers, and 5 GiB of storage, with all resources public. Free plan; paid from €15/mo (annual).
