🌍
Advanced Geospatial Intelligence Platform
Your desktop is now a geospatial server.
3D visualization, true 3D / Z editing, multi-format data mastery — and now a full GEOINT workstation: TAK, radar & SAR exploitation, imagery intelligence, local AI, RF sensing, offline routing, commercial imagery tasking, and a plugin SDK. Fully offline.
Tech Maven Geospatial · v1.4.0
The problem
GIS data shouldn't need a server farm to share.
- Infrastructure tax — enterprise GIS stacks demand hardware, licenses, and dedicated staff.
- Data sovereignty — cloud sync is a non-starter for classified or regulated data.
- Disconnected ops — field and tactical teams go dark the moment the network drops.
- Format silos — teams are trapped choosing tools by which file they were handed.
Our solution
One desktop. Every capability.
An in-process ASP.NET Core server turns any Windows workstation into a complete, air-gapped geospatial hub — hosting, editing, analyzing, and sharing data across the LAN.
🖥️
No server
The desktop is the server.
🔒
No cloud
Data stays on your network.

No license
No ArcGIS server required.
