ALIGN
What ALIGN is
ALIGN is a cloud GIS platform for storing geospatial data, creating maps and GIS applications, and publishing them. Its browser-based Map Builder can visualize, edit, style, transform, analyze and publish spatial data without desktop installation. Supported formats include vector and raster data, WMS, WFS and GeoParquet. For 3D mapping, it works with LiDAR point clouds, Gaussian splatting scenes, 3D Tiles, city meshes, terrain and glTF models in the browser.
The App Builder provides templates, configurable widgets, AI assistance, live preview and MapLibre support. Team users can push projects to GitHub and deploy exported applications on their own infrastructure. Documented integrations include Supabase for managed PostgreSQL with PostGIS, as well as Mapillary, Google Street View, Mapbox, MapTiler and GitHub. ALIGN describes its documentation as intended for GIS-savvy people who are not developers, with no code required. The maker says data is stored and served from the European Union and that traffic is encrypted via TLS. Free, Pro and Team plans include community support and a feedback board.
