Geodocs Tools

GeoTIFF / COG Viewer

Drop a GeoTIFF or paste a URL and view it on an interactive map. Any CRS is reprojected automatically. 100% in your browser — files never leave your device.

Serve your rasters as COGs

Geodocs converts and serves your GeoTIFFs as Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs automatically, with maps, reports, and dynamic forms for field teams.

A GeoTIFF is a TIFF image with embedded georeferencing — a coordinate system and the real-world position of every pixel — so it lines up with a map. A Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) is the same format laid out in internal tiles with overviews, so a reader can decode just the tiles it needs instead of the whole image. This tool opens both and draws them on an interactive map: a file you drop in is read tile by tile. A URL is downloaded in full before rendering, so it works best for small rasters. For a deeper look at what makes a file a COG — internal tiling, overviews, and why it matters — see our Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF guide.

Drop a .tif or paste a URL and the raster is reprojected from its native coordinate system (UTM, SIRGAS 2000, or anything proj4 knows) into web map coordinates automatically — no desktop GIS, no tiling server. A COG you drop in draws almost immediately, because only the tiles and overviews in view are decoded. Loaded by URL, it takes as long as the download does.

If a file is striped instead of internally tiled, the whole image has to be decoded at once, which is slow and memory-heavy for large rasters. The viewer detects this and warns you before rendering. To make large rasters fast everywhere, convert them to COGs — Geodocs does this automatically and serves them for you.

Yes. Everything runs in your browser. Local files are read on your device and never uploaded. A file loaded by URL is fetched straight from the host you name. Nothing is sent to a Geodocs server.
