Kart
An open-source project bringing the benefits of distributed version-control to geospatial and tabular data.
Distributed Version Control for Data
Koordinates offers version control for geospatial and tabular data using Kart, our open source project built on Git.
- Using Kart, Koordinates stores geospatial and tabular data in Git, providing version control at the row and cell level.
