TerriaJS
A JavaScript library for building web-based geospatial data explorers with 2D/3D visualization and extensive data format support.
What is TerriaJS?
TerriaJS is a JavaScript library for creating web-based geospatial data exploration platforms that combine 2D and 3D visualization. It enables users to interact with complex geospatial datasets directly in the browser, supporting dozens of file formats and web services. The library powers major spatial data portals like Digital Earth Australia Map and NSW Spatial Digital Twin.
Government agencies, research institutions, and organizations building public-facing geospatial data portals that require interactive exploration of large catalogs of spatial data. Developers creating applications that need to visualize and mash up multiple geospatial data sources in both 2D and 3D environments.
Developers choose TerriaJS for its ability to handle catalogs of tens of thousands of layers with support for numerous geospatial formats and services, all with client-side processing that enables static deployment. Its unique combination of Cesium-based 3D globe visualization with graceful fallback to Leaflet for 2D ensures broad compatibility across devices and systems.
