Getting Started with Mapfluence JavaScript API 2.0

What is Mapfluence?

Mapfluence makes it easy to add rich geographic data to web (and non-web) applications.

For example, you can use Mapfluence to:

  • Add demographic and other data layers to web maps
  • Get contextual information about a point (e.g. neighborhood, city, state)
  • Query data to display a table or chart

The core of the platform is a REST API. This guide gets you started using the Mapfluence JavaScript library, which is the recommended way to access the platform for the web.

What do I do first?

Register and we’ll setup your API key.

Once you have your key you can get started building maps.

To add data layers to a map, start with the Visual Tutorial 1: Base Map.

To query raw data, start with the Spatial Query Tutorial.
