Data offered docs-verified: Vector datasets from uploaded files, created datasets, or registered PostGIS tables · Feature-service snapshots from WFS, ArcGIS FeatureServer, or OGC API Features (one-shot copies) · Remote STAC assets as live references · Catalog metadata with fuzzy and optional semantic search
Formats docs-verified: Shapefile · GeoPackage · GeoJSON · GeoParquet · FlatGeobuf · KML · KMZ · zipped File Geodatabase · CSV · XLSX
Access docs-verified: Free and open source under Apache-2.0, self-hosted via Docker Compose; API calls use a JWT bearer token from admin login

Use cases llm-inferred: Index shared-drive shapefiles and PostGIS tables for a flood-risk or drainage project data room, searchable by metadata · Publish a shared map of survey or site-investigation layers as a link or embed for client review · Serve catalogued vector layers to QGIS or ArcGIS via OGC API Features for FRA or environmental baseline work · Run buffer, clip, and intersect analysis on consultancy layers, such as constraint buffers around watercourses
Audience llm-inferred: GIS analysts · flood consultants · drainage engineers · ecologists · planners

Constraints docs-verified: Read-only MCP server for coding agents (per docs) · Self-hosted: requires a running GeoLens stack of six containers (about 1.3 GB resident) · WFS, ArcGIS, and OGC API Features imports are one-shot copies, not live · Map previews capped at 500 features; dissolve is materialize-only · GeoLens's own REST API can change between minor releases; standards APIs track their specifications · Semantic search needs an embedding provider and admin setup · No MCP tool names are given in the metadata or docs
