   Great Product!

   I've been looking for an alternative to Algolia Places but the existing solutions are either too expensive or lack worldwide support. Placekit was the right solution for me: simple, efficient, affordable and loved the dashboard design.

• Google Maps is always right… right?

  We recently integrated a new country-state boundary functionality into our PlaceKit API. To estimate performance, we tested our system against the Google Maps API and encountered unexpected anomalies. A manual review of each discrepancy led to an interesting discovery: we traced all anomalies back to Google Maps, offering a glimpse into its occasionally flawed calculations. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Drawing graphs and diagrams

  Or, does drawing diagrams refers to plotting data, but neither using matplotlib, nor gnuplot (export to .svg, .pdf, .png; pstricks, tikz to mention a few options)? Source: over 3 years ago

• Are specific softwares avialable that are suitable for converting different diagrams, graphs and mindmaps to latex codes?

  There may the occasion you actually need the data from a publication, and want to plot them altogether with data newly collected data in one diagram in common. An overlay, though possible, can become tricky (scaling, centering, alignment, etc.) and plotting all data in a diagram generated from scratch (gnuplot/octave, matplotlib, Origin, ...) exported as an illustration in the usual formats (.pdf/.png), or...
