Geopedia is a web-based free atlas, which can be edited an extended by its users – members of the general public.

It contains various kinds of geographical and geo-referenced information that come from many different sources and are thoroughly described, tagged, cross-referenced and categorized. With a user-friendly web interface, it is easy to find items of interest – either through full text search or via hierarchically organized categories – and display them on interactive maps, which can be saved for later viewing and manipulation. Users can define and publish new layers with custom styling and textual descriptions, aggregate related layers into custom maps and associate them with other sources of information. Its advanced browser-based geometry editor allows anyone to insert new geographical features or edit existing ones making Geopedia a true collaborative on-line GIS with a potential of becoming an important source of user-generated geographical content.

Capable of containing vast amounts of geographical information and display it to the public, Geopedia is also a perfect solution for organizations and associations that need to distribute their data, but lack the resources and infrastructure to do it efficiently. By sharing their data on Geopedia, they can present their accomplishments  in an environment that is easily accessible to anyone and designed especially for this purpose.

Geopedia was launched on 15.5.2007.
