Mapbender

Mapbender is a flexible and open-source WebGIS solution designed for creating customized, map-based applications. It provides a powerful platform for bringing maps and geodata to the web, allowing users to build intuitive and performant WebGIS applications without needing to write code. The software supports open standards, ensuring independence and adaptability for various project requirements.

Functionality within Mapbender, such as design adjustments, feature sets, and rights management, can be conveniently configured through a web browser, much like a Content Management System (CMS) for maps. This ease of use makes it suitable for diverse applications, ranging from simple municipal map services to highly complex, integrated professional applications. Mapbender is also a certified Open-Source-project of the OSGeo, highlighting its commitment to open standards and community development.

Recent updates include support for Vector Tiles and integration with QGIS projects, allowing for easy transfer and direct publication of QGIS Server WMS within Mapbender. This continuous development ensures the platform remains a robust tool for geospatial data publishing and management.
