User Guide

The User Guide covers every catalog-side workflow in GeoLens: searching for datasets, browsing dataset detail pages, composing maps, organizing collections, importing data, and exporting in any of 13 formats.

Pick a starting point:

Search & Discovery Find datasets fast with filters, faceted search, semantic search, and saved searches.

Dataset Detail Browse a dataset's overview, data, metadata, and access tabs — and trigger exports from any of them.

Map Builder Compose maps from datasets — add layers, style features, filter on-the-fly, and share with a link or embed.

Collections Group datasets into named collections; manage membership and browse collection-scoped catalogs.

Importing Data Upload files, register existing services (WFS / ArcGIS / OGC API), create empty layers, and re-import to update.

Exports & Integrations Export formats (GeoPackage, GeoJSON, Shapefile, CSV, KML, GML, GeoTIFF), OGC API access, STAC, and machine-client examples.
