Leading Applied Innovation
Powering Digital Cartography with Scalable, Real-Time Web Mapping
Modern Web Mapping for National-Scale Geodata

A new digital infrastructure for real-time cartographic services across Spain, implemented with a microservices architecture. The system integrates vector and bitmap layers, enabling multi-scale visualization from the national to the municipal level. Based on OGC standards and deployed within RTVE’s infrastructure, it includes dynamic tile servers, postal address geolocation, and a responsive interface for public and institutional use.

Project Objectives:

  • Deploy a web-based vector map system with multi-scale Spanish territorial data
  • Enable geolocation and postal address search through a scalable geocoding service
  • Support planning, logistics, and territorial analysis with open data integration
  • Ensure high performance and flexibility using containerized microservices

Use Cases Include:

  • Interactive territorial visualization (Spain, islands, municipalities)
  • Real-time address search and mapping
  • Urban planning and institutional dashboards
  • Electoral results visualization at municipal scale
  • Optimized infrastructure for online geoservices

Tutorial: Masked Portfolio Splitscreen Scroll Animation

In this Webflow tutorial, Jonas Arleth shows how to create a masked scroll animation with a split screen effect over the text. He explains how to analyze and recreate the animation. He covers various elements such as navigation, text shift and background color. He also shows how to move the text in the animation and gives tips for optimization.
