Welcome to the Quarticle Data Catalog
The catalog explores the geospatial datasets available through the Quarticle platform. Each layer is documented with a clear description of the data, its business applications, and the industries it supports — helping teams evaluate and select the right datasets for their specific needs without requiring specialist GIS knowledge.
What is included in the catalog?
The catalog contains curated geospatial layers organised into seven key categories, covering essential datasets for different industries:
| Category | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Hazard | Flood, seismic, fire, lightning, landslide, and cyclone risk layers |
| Population | Population density, demographics, and exposure grids |
| Environment | Land cover, ground motion, soil moisture, and ecological data |
| Infrastructure | Transport networks, utilities, maritime infrastructure, and administrative boundaries |
| Socioeconomic | Economic activity, risk indicators, and trend data |
| Political Risk | Governance, instability, and risk trend indicators |
| Drive Time | Drive-time catchments, healthcare access, and service connectivity |
Who is this for?
The catalog is designed for business and technical teams in a variety of industries that rely on geospatial data. Each layer provides the context needed to understand the data, evaluate its relevance, and apply it within specific models and workflows.
For developers and data teams integrating geospatial services programmatically, each layer page's technical information includes the format, projection, and GeoServer service details needed for direct integration.
