Re:Earth Flow is a new visual ETL tool for geospatial data—fully browser-based and built for collaboration. See the alpha in action, learn how it works, and find out how to get involved early.
Discover Re:Earth Flow, a new open-source platform for building geospatial data workflows — visually, collaboratively, and entirely in your browser. Whether you’re cleaning municipal datasets or transforming large geospatial files, Re:Earth Flow lets you connect and configure transformation steps like building blocks, no code required. In this talk, we’ll introduce the tool (currently in alpha), explain its technical foundation, and show how it brings a familiar ETL model to the web — powered by a Rust engine, Go APIs, and real-time collaboration via WebSockets and Yjs.
What to Expect:
- Why We Built It: Friction points with desktop tools and the case for a browser-native alternative
- How It Works: A look at the architecture behind our visual ETL engine and collaboration system
- Live Demo: A walkthrough of the alpha release — what’s working, what’s missing, and what’s next
- What’s Ahead: Our roadmap toward beta and full public release, and how you can help shape it
Who Should Attend:
GIS analysts, developers, and open-source enthusiasts curious about accessible, collaborative alternatives to traditional spatial ETL tools — and anyone interested in testing and contributing to an early-stage platform.
