loka atlas · for organisations

Your region, mapped.

LOKA Atlas is a self-serve map publishing platform — pick a region anywhere in the world and publish a shareable atlas in minutes. Every atlas ships with a catalogue of default layers built from open data; then make it yours by adding your own data (CSV, Excel, JSON, GeoJSON, KML, GPX). Share it, embed it, or keep it private.

Live atlas

The Deoria · Kushinagar · Gorakhpur atlas

Built with the Systems Practice at Socratus and Jagriti, it maps crop systems block by block, sugar mills and distilleries, rivers, wetlands, floodplains, forests and land cover across three eastern-UP districts — every layer switchable, every feature clickable.

What you get

A layered map of your geography District and block boundaries, rivers and canals, wetlands, land use, built-up areas — assembled from open public data for anywhere in the world, with the deepest layer set for India.
Your branding Your organisation's name, logo and links in the header and footer — on a map that credits its data sources properly. Made with LOKA, and it says so.
Share it anywhere A clean link for WhatsApp and email, a QR code for posters, and an embed snippet that drops the whole map into your own website.
Private maps Working with sensitive survey data? Keep an atlas off the public directory and share it only with the people who should see it.
Bring your own datacoming soon Upload a spreadsheet — village survey results, facility lists, field GPS points — and an AI assistant turns it into a styled map layer you can refine in plain language.

How it works

1Tell us your region

A district, a cluster of blocks, a watershed — anywhere. If it's in India, you get the richest layer catalogue.

2Pick layers & branding

Choose what belongs on your map from the catalogue for your region, and add your organisation's identity.

3Get your link

Your atlas goes live at its own address — share it, embed it, or keep it private. Update it as your work grows.

Free to start — most atlases cost nothing to build or host. Very large regions or heavy data layers may need a quick approval from us first, and we'll tell you before anything is charged (usually nothing is).

Get your atlas

The setup wizard takes you from region to published atlas in a few minutes — free to start, and you sign in with just your email to publish. Prefer a guided start? Write to us and we'll set it up with you.
