Kontur team has years of experience in creating base maps for various domains and purposes: disaster management, logistics, games, agriculture, business intelligence, and many others. Regardless of the purpose, basemap is a fundamental map layer containing geographic information to provide location references for any data layers visualized on top of it.
Utilizing the proper basemap can make a difference between a map with confusing colored lines and tiles and a clear, insightful message you actually need for your analytics.
Kontur Lines light basemap:
Kontur Zmrok dark basemap:
Both map styles are OpenStreetMap-based and made with MapCSS. These minimalistic light and dark vector basemaps are perfect for data visualization. They do not interfere with the display of overlayed colored data. Try them for your projects in Foursquare Studio.
It does not interfere with your choropleth for clean and undistorted data visualization. This clean style is used in Disaster Ninja to help emergency cartographers prepare mapping tasks by comparing OpenStreetMap data and population density.
It provides full cartographic context while leaving most of your display’s dynamic range for your data. This basemap style is used in Global Fires interactive map overlaid with a year of fire data.
Lines and Zmrok map styles are customizable, e.g. the language is switchable, while selected feature names in Foursquare Studio are shown in local languages.
Kontur basemaps can be deployed on-premise to ensure disaster-resilient uninterrupted work.

The laconic solution includes a typo-proof address search, custom routing algorithm for fire trucks, street length, and roof area measuring tools. The technology works well for the Minsk Fire Dept. and can improve disaster response worldwide.
Get information about changes in the course of events from reputable sources via a simple service and use that to make decisions about people, infrastructure and assets faster.
Global Fires viewer visualizes fire data globally and helps find spots free from smoke pollution during wildfire season.
In case of fire unfolding outside your window, it is vital to know where to find breathable areas nearby. When a threat develops rapidly information should be available at your fingertips.

We are building the ultimate publicly available global population dataset by obtaining and processing all available data and fixing all known issues.
It was initially developed as a fundamental part of Disaster Ninja to help Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team take actions confidently based on data correlated with population density.
Site selection analysis is a critical process that involves a comprehensive assessment of potential locations for a business operation, such as a new store, manufacturing plant, or office. It entails gathering and analyzing various factors, such as market socioeconomics, competition, transportation and infrastructure, labor availability, real estate costs, and regulatory environment.
By conducting this analysis, businesses can make informed decisions about where to establish or expand their operations while considering the strengths and weaknesses of each potential area.
Kontur offers various tools to empower municipal authorities, urban planners, and businesses with geospatial analytics and situational intelligence for achieving smart city objectives.
