openkarte is a web-based platform for exploring and visualizing open geospatial data. It aims to make public data intuitively accessible, visually insightful, and contextually rich — starting with georeferenced Open Data from Schleswig-Holstein.
-
Map-Based Visualization: Displays georeferenced data sets on an interactive map. The initial data source is the Open Data Portal of Schleswig-Holstein.
-
Temporal Data Exploration: Supports visualization of changes over time, enabling users to explore dynamic developments in spatial data.
-
Data Query and Combination: Future support to allows users to query and link data — for example, connecting water quality measurements with lake locations and depths. Input can be made via a simple interface, including natural language queries powered by AI.
-
Flexible Data Integration: Future support for integrating data from additional external databases is planned.
-
Beyond the Map: Visualization will not be limited to maps: charts and graphs will be supported to give deeper insight into non-spatial aspects of the data.
openkarte is not just a tool for developers or researchers — it’s a public-facing platform that makes open data tangible. By visualizing relationships between different data layers, it helps uncover insights, support local decision-making, and foster transparency.
