The Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Province of Málaga (IDEMAP) is an innovative platform designed to share spatial data with the Málaga community. It’s not limited solely to cartography and orthophotos; it also includes corporate information related to the territory and tools that facilitate territorial analysis. The integration of modern technology into territorial studies has revolutionized our understanding and ability to interact with it.
However, this technological transformation has also created digital divides, especially in municipalities with technical and financial limitations. IDEMAP was born with the spirit of bridging these gaps and offering a high-quality public service, promoting neogeography and expanding the use of new technologies.
IDEMAP: Benefits Beyond the Screen
The IDEMAP portal brings numerous benefits to both professionals and the average citizen:

- Promotion of Neogeography: IDEMAP aims to advance in the realm of neogeography, an emerging field that benefits from widely recognized portals.
- Popularization of New Technologies: One of the main objectives of IDEMAP is to promote the use and understanding of new technologies, allowing users to learn more about the territory of the Province of Málaga.
- Meeting Public Demands: The system has been designed to handle a high volume of geographic information requests, coming from both public and private entities as well as individuals.

Reimagining Geospatiality with Fisotec
Fisotec played a pivotal role in the platform’s implementation. Fisotec was in charge of the project for the New Web Viewer of the Special Data Infrastructure of the Málaga Provincial Council EIEL. This new format, which utilizes maps based on Open Source/Leaflet technology, offers a much clearer and efficient access to the province’s GeoSpatial information.
Alphanumeric and GeoSpatial queries were also significantly improved, making this tool far more accessible, intuitive, and agile compared to previous systems.
In summary, IDEMAP is not just a digital platform but a bridge that connects citizens to the geographical richness of Málaga, allowing for a deeper and more detailed understanding of the territory. Fisotec’s collaboration has been crucial in this process, providing technological solutions that have elevated the platform to new levels of efficiency and accessibility.
