JMap Cloud is a cloud-based geospatial platform designed for developers and system integrators who need to add advanced mapping capabilities to their applications. It provides robust cloud services and APIs that facilitate the integration, visualization, and querying of heterogeneous geospatial data from multiple formats (vector, raster, web services) and sources (OGC services, local files, etc.), as well as the various mapping applications that connect to the platform.

The platform is built on containerized microservices that are interoperable and scalable. It complies with industry standards in the geospatial domain (OGC, GeoJSON, WMS/WFS, etc.), ensuring seamless interoperability with existing GIS systems and business applications.

The following diagram illustrates the JMap Cloud architecture, including its main services (authentication, data management, map rendering, etc.), its possible connections with an organization’s information systems (databases, internal web services) through JMap Server, and the front-end interfaces used by end users through mapping applications. The architecture diagram on page 2 shows these components and their interactions.

JMap Cloud Portal is the platform’s web-based management interface. It provides administrators and authorized users with advanced visual tools to:

  • Import geospatial and non-spatial datasets

  • Create, configure, and publish mapping projects

  • Manage users, roles, and access permissions

  • Monitor the technical ecosystem connected to JMap Cloud

In summary, JMap Cloud Portal centralizes the governance of an organization’s geospatial data and mapping services within a secure, flexible, and scalable cloud environment.
