Our Technology Stack

GeoMapVision leverages cutting-edge geospatial technologies to deliver powerful insights:

Core Technologies

  • PostGIS: Advanced spatial database extension
  • QGIS Server: Dynamic map rendering engine
  • MapProxy: High-performance tile caching
  • PostgreSQL: Robust data storage

Cloud Infrastructure

  • Kubernetes Cluster:
    • QGIS Server pods with horizontal autoscaling (WMS/WFS requests)
    • PostGIS clusters via CNPG Operator (3-node Citus-based sharding)
    • Redis caching layer for frequent geoqueries
    • ArgoCD for GitOps deployments

QGIS MapServer Migration

We transitioned from MapServer to QGIS Server for:

  • Simplified styling directly from QGIS projects
  • Native support for complex PostGIS queries
  • Dynamic on-the-fly reprojection
  • Integrated authentication/authorization

PostgreSQL/PostGIS Optimization

  • TimescaleDB for temporal data
  • pgRouting for network analysis
  • PostGIS Tiger Geocoder integration
  • Vector tile generation with PG_Tileserv

Machine Learning

  • Custom predictive models for risk assessment
  • Real-time data processing pipelines
  • Automated anomaly detection
