This course is designed to help you build modern, real-world GIS Web Mapping Applications using industry-standard technologies. You will learn how to create interactive Choropleth Maps with React Leaflet, manage and query spatial data using PostgreSQL, and unlock powerful geospatial capabilities through the PostGIS extension. Rather than focusing only on theory, this course takes a practical approach where you will build a complete working mapping application from scratch.
Throughout the course, you will work with real geospatial datasets, write efficient Spatial SQL queries, and understand how spatial databases power modern web mapping systems. You will learn how to structure and store spatial data, perform operations such as spatial joins, buffer analysis, and intersections, and serve optimized GeoJSON data to a frontend application. By connecting a React interface to a spatial backend, you will see how full-stack Web GIS development works in real production environments.
By the end of this course, you will have the skills to confidently build scalable interactive web maps, design and manage spatial databases, and develop professional-grade GIS web applications. Whether you are a GIS student, developer, or professional looking to expand into full-stack GIS development, this course will give you the practical knowledge needed to move from understanding maps to building them.
