Guides

Use this hub when you know the kind of work you need to do, but not the exact GeoLens page name yet.

Quickstart Install GeoLens, start the local stack, log in, and confirm the running catalog.

User Guide Search, import, inspect, organize, export, and map catalog data.

CLI & Manifests Publish files from a terminal or CI pipeline and keep repeatable catalogs in a geolens.yaml manifest.

SDKs Call the API from Python or TypeScript, or connect a coding agent through the MCP server.

Admin Guide Configure users, SSO, settings, backups, monitoring, and production operations.

API Reference Authenticate clients, use OGC/STAC endpoints, and browse the generated OpenAPI reference.

First successful path

1. Install and run GeoLens
