A GeoShare Viewer is a functional viewing application hosted on and served by the GeoShare. It provides a user-friendly way to visualize geographical data (GeoPackages, GeoTIFFs, and small GeoJSONs), primarily for sharing calculation results like flood analyses or heat stress effects.
Like other Geo Data on the GeoShare, it is accessible through a URL outside of running Sessions, regardless of the contents of the data. This will open a web-based interface in which the data of the viewer can be inspected or played, if the data consists of multiple timeframes. The viewer's extent is determined by its underlying data. The viewer can be configured to require a Web Token for authentication.
GeoShare Viewers do not take up a significant amount of space on the GeoShare. However, the data a GeoShare Viewer relies on must continue to exist on the GeoShare.
Notes
- GeoJSON viewer inputs are limited to 1,000,000 features. Use GeoPackage for larger datasets as it is more efficient and performant.
- Unmodified GeoJSONs from before Tygron Platform version 2026 are allowed to have more features due to backwards compatibility.
