Part of open-source knowledge introductions. Technical depth lives in Geospatial PostGIS & deck.gl best practices—indexing, projections, tile orchestration, performance traps.
Maps are the skin; the database is the spine
Climate, logistics, and infrastructure programmes generate huge spatial datasets. If geometries, SRIDs, and indexes are wrong, every map lies—GPU layers cannot fix inconsistent aggregates. PostGIS belongs upstream as the authoritative store for queries you must reproduce in reporting.
Rendering budgets matter
deck.gl shines when data delivery and level-of-detail match session constraints. Throwing massive datasets at the browser without simplification or stratification buys crashy tabs, not insight.
Delivery links
- PostGIS geospatial platform — schemas, indexing, APIs your analysts can trust.
- deck.gl data visualisation — performant layers once the server-side contract is sane.
