Kepler.gl is an open-source, web-based geospatial analysis tool for visual exploration of large-scale location datasets, built on MapLibre GL and deck.gl. It also ships as an embeddable React/Redux component and a Jupyter widget for custom applications.

Use cases

• visualize millions of GPS trip points on a map
• explore large-scale geolocation datasets interactively
• embed a customizable map visualization component in a React app
• perform on-the-fly spatial aggregation of point data
• create choropleth, heatmap, and trip-layer maps from CSV or GeoJSON
• analyze geospatial data from a Jupyter notebook

When to choose

• you need to render millions of geographic points or trips in the browser
• you want a no-code tool for exploring large geospatial datasets
• you need an embeddable, customizable React map visualization component
• you work with location data in Jupyter notebooks

When to avoid

• you need lightweight static maps without heavy visualization layers
• your datasets are small and a simple mapping library suffices
• you need server-side or offline GIS analysis rather than browser-based exploration
• you require full GIS capabilities like advanced geoprocessing or projection handling
