Data Visualization and Data-driven Thematic Maps

We create thematic maps based on both Regio’s and client data. Thematic mapping helps visually analyze complex data, patterns, and trends in geographic areas. 
Thematic maps are used in many fields, including:

  • Planning and Infrastructure—used by municipalities and urban planners.
  • Environment and Science—for analyzing natural phenomena and climate patterns. 
  • Tourism industry and Business—to show destinations and tourism statistics.
  • Real Estate and Transport—for market research and location-based analysis.

Thematic maps are created on demand. These maps can combine spatial data layers with digital solutions, so that the result can be integrated into map applications. Available formats include density maps, contour maps as well as 3D maps. 

Thematic maps provide a quick and clear overview of spatial information, helping to make better decisions.

Map Applications

A map application is an excellent tool for visualizing data and information. Regio develops map applications for web browsers, mobile devices and desktop applications. These applications allow users to filter map data, display various map layers and dynamically navigate. 

Based on the need of users, we create static, as well as interactive map applications, focusing on user-friendly design. Just like with paper maps, clarity and comprehensibility are essential in digital solutions.

Automated Translation Solution for Names

Automated translation solution TerraLexicon is focused on translation of geographical names. The uniqueness of the service is in replacing the original names with the translated ones directly in the vector graphic file, significantly reducing the time and cost needed for editing. The file being translated does not leave your computer. Names are taken into the translation environment and then returned to the design file through the Adobe Illustrator plugin. This ensures that no one else gains access to your original file.

TerraLexicon was developed within the framework of the Estonia-Latvia cross-border cooperation program, in collaboration with the Latvian cartography and geoinformatics company SIA “Jāņa sēta”.

The visual showcase of some of the key features of TerraLexicon can be seen in this video

Automated name translation service TerraLexicon was developed as part of the Interreg Estonia-Latvia Cross-Border Cooperation Program 2014-2020 project “Geoname Translator for Maps” (Est-Lat 112).
