  • Easier for municipal employees
  • Information provision

GIS-Viewer

Atlas is fast and works in any browser and on any device. Our geoviewer is accessible to the visually impaired with a screen reader or Braille display. Atlas is also fully keyboard controllable./n/nAtlas is not only fast but also easy to use for creating maps. Add your own branding and quickly publish the map to your Web site. With hundreds of map layers, you can make the map as comprehensive as you want. The administrator can also create simple maps with a few layers./n/nFor the user, there are several features, such as:

  • Adjust the transparency of the map layer
  • Viewing detailed information of a point on the map (e.g. which school it is)
  • Making a selection on the map
  • View a list of all points on the map
  • Print
  • Go to the current GPS position
  • Embed (add) a created map to another site

User-friendly, accessible and very fast

The strength of Atlas is that it can be used both internally and externally. For example, it is efficient for an employee to quickly retrieve the owners of a Cadastral parcel. They can also easily consult locations for planned housing developments. In addition, Atlas provides openness to residents. Because you are looking at the same open data, the information position is equal. As a municipality, you can indicate whether a map layer can only be viewed internally or also externally.

  • For employees
  • For residents

Internal and external use

One of the interesting aspects of Atlas is the interaction with residents. An example: a municipality is going to plant trees and residents can choose a tree on an interactive map and immediately adopt it via an external adoption form. You can also use Atlas to present data and tell stories, for example with a digital archive map. Around the beginning of our era, the northern border of the Roman Empire ran right through what is now Utrecht. Large parts of the border road, forts, ships and watchtowers were found later. You can view this world heritage on the digital archive map of the municipality of Utrecht.

  • Citizen participation
  • Storytelling

Interactive maps

As a participating organization, you have a direct influence on the ongoing development of our platform. This is done through the Atlas Community. Currently, this community consists of nine municipalities. We meet (digitally) every two weeks, allowing municipalities to give a lot of direction to the development of Atlas. Wishes of the participating municipalities can be translated into new features. The Atlas software is open source and fully in line with the Common Ground principles of the VNG.

Frequently Asked Questions

    • When can I get started with Atlas?

      You can get started immediately after registration.

    • How can I manage data shown on maps?

      Atlas itself does not contain any data, because it is set up according to the principles of Common Ground. Atlas links to external data sources via WMS, WFS, WMTS, MVT (vector tiles) and REST. You manage the data in these data sources.

    • We currently use various geoviewers for our own employees and for the publication of maps via our website. How can we make the switch to Atlas?

      Switching to Atlas usually turns out to be less complicated than expected. We work out a migration strategy together and carry out this process step by step. During the transition period, Atlas will be used alongside the current solution(s).

    • How can I help decide the further development of Atlas?

      As a Delta10 customer you can participate in the Atlas community for free. You follow developments closely through regular meetings and you can contribute new features and improvements together with colleagues from other municipalities.

    • I want to make a map with specific functionalities, can you develop it for us?

      Of course! We regularly develop special maps for customers. Send us an e-mail at info@delta10.nl and tell us your wishes.

    • Why do I need support on open source software?

      We notice that municipalities often need a point of contact and that they want guarantees that software functions properly, is available and secure. This works differently with open source software than with closed software. The developers of open source software do not offer any guarantees on the software or any other forms of customer support. In the case of Atlas, you cannot turn to the municipality of Purmerend, the original maker, for management and support. You can contact Delta10 for this.
