RustGIS

RustGIS launched as a free, open-source GIS written in pure Rust that runs natively on Windows, macOS and Linux and in a web browser, keeping data local unless a user sends it to an AI model of their choice. The tool ships an AI Assistant that executes RustGIS commands, a rustgis-cli command line, a rustgis Python package, an MCP server that lets AI agents make maps, and sandboxed WebAssembly plugins, alongside support for GeoJSON, CSV, Shapefile, GeoPackage, GeoParquet, FlatGeobuf, KML, GPX, GeoTIFF and cloud-optimised GeoTIFF, web tiles, vector tiles, PMTiles, MBTiles and MapLibre styles. Analysis features include SQL selection, overlay and proximity tools, ModelBuilder, imagery tools and over 1,000 GeoLibre and Whitebox tools for terrain, hydrology and LiDAR.

RustGIS ¶ rustgis A fast, free and open-source GIS in pure Rust for mapping, analyzing and sharing geospatial data. RustGIS runs natively on Windows, macOS and Linux, and in your web browser. Your data stays on your machine unless you send it to an AI model you choose, and every action is a command you can script from the command line, a notebook or the AI Assistant. Try it in your browser https://web.rustgis.app Download installation/ Get started getting-started/ Compare comparison/ Highlights ¶ highlights - Your data, any map GeoJSON, CSV, Shapefile, GeoPackage, GeoParquet, FlatGeobuf, KML, GPX, GeoTIFF and cloud-optimised GeoTIFF, web tiles, vector tiles, PMTiles, MBTiles and MapLibre styles, drawn on a 3D globe or in any projection, on the desktop and in the browser; SQL and DuckDB databases on the desktop. Data user-guide/data/ · Formats user-guide/data-formats/ · Maps user-guide/maps/ - Cartography Unique values, graduated colours and proportional symbols, collision-free labels, effects, extrusion, page layouts, map series, reports and presentations. Cartography user-guide/cartography/ · Layouts user-guide/layouts/ - Analysis SQL selection, overlay and proximity tools, guided workflows, ModelBuilder, imagery tools and over 1,000 GeoLibre and Whitebox tools for terrain, hydrology and LiDAR. Analysis user-guide/analysis/ - Editing Create and modify features with snapping and templates, keep attributes valid with domains, subtypes and rules, and undo anything. Editing user-guide/editing/ - AI Assistant Ask about your data or tell the map what to do. The assistant runs RustGIS commands with the model you choose, and every change can be undone. AI Assistant user-guide/assistant/ - Scriptable and extensible rustgis-cli and the rustgis Python package run any command by id, render maps and chain tools; the MCP server lets AI agents make maps; sandboxed WebAssembly plugins add commands, tools and ribbon tabs.
