GeoServer VS ipgeolocation.io

If you want to get into web GeoDjango is a popular option for the backend, but you could also learn to roll your own with flask/FastAPI. You also have some choice of JavaScript libraries for the frontend, [Leaflet]() and [OpenLayers]() are likely the most popular frameworks, but there are others (personally I'd recommend OpenLayers as it's the only one backed by OSGeo as far as I know). It also wouldn't hurt to... Source: over 1 year ago

Thank you! It's on my todo-list to set up such a server and your work will really help with it. Here is another excellent write-up from Stefan Erhardt who is the founder of OpenTopoMap [0][1] which gives step-by-step instructions [2] on how to set up a tile server with custom tile rendering, also based on OSM's data. Also worth mentioning is GeoServer [3] [0] https://opentopomap.org/ [1]... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

ArcGIS Online could be the right move as long as you set up the service correctly. You could also load the shapefile into a database like PostgreSQL and connect to the database via an API like Geoserver FastVector, or pg_tileserv. This would cause a lot more time, cost, and knowledge on your end though to host a database and api vs loading the data into the ESRI ecosystem. Source: over 1 year ago

I am currently working on setting up a web app using leaflet that can display .tif images along with some polygons and add some filters in the web app to better interact with the data. In the process of implementing this, I came to know that I need to use a tile server because I have large amounts of data and the tile server can help to serve the tiles on the web app. Based on my research, I guess these two are...

I wouldn't be trying to do this by scraping. Instead, just use an API: https://ipgeolocation.io/. Source: about 1 year ago

Https://ipgeolocation.io/ I run my own DNS server, so query processing would not be the problem. Source: about 1 year ago

Getting a user's location from their IP should be possible with something like this https://ipgeolocation.io/ (free for up to 1000 requests per day which my puny website will never get). Latitude + longitude data from this service could be used to place the location dot accurately on the globe, although I'd have to look more into the math aspect of that before. This will probably be one of the harder parts to... Source: over 1 year ago
