Learn MoreAt Axis Maps, we work hard to provide thoughtful and intuitive interactive designs with every project we undertake. We want your project to look great and work as well as you do. As a small company, we are focused on efficiency, speed, quality control, and reproducible processes. We price lower and meet deadlines faster.
We design and deploy second versions of popular tools, modernizing the underlying technology and UI while retaining the features that existing users know.
We build maps and applications that work on a wide range of devices, from desktops to tablets and smartphones.
We design simple and elegant user-interfaces for interactive maps.
We design and build systems that automate the process of data updates and data additions.
We produce compelling cartographic visuals that communicate a wide variety of geographic information to end-users.
Axis Maps builds full-stack geospatial solutions that efficiently store, process, and deliver geospatial data to your audience.
If you have or are planning to build a mapping application, we can help you design a basemap and thematic graphics that match your branding, making your maps look uniquely your own.
The most important job of a user-interface is communication. Each UI element communicates a specific piece of map functionality to the user. Before we begin our design process, we’ll work with you to understand your users. By knowing who it is you are targeting, we can craft the most appropriate UI for their needs and abilities.
Spatial data can be messy. We can help you take your spatial data—whatever format it is in—and turn it into structured, organized, machine-readable information. The data collection processes already in place at your organization are paramount. We can help you by designing new software that brings spatial data to your existing workflows.
We are passionate about cartography education. We would love the opportunity to teach your organization about the best practices around visually displaying geographic information.
This guide contains insights and tips for making thematic maps. It covers the important concepts in cartography and flags the important decision points in the map-making process.
Indiemapper helps you make static, thematic maps from geographic data by bringing the best of traditional cartographic design to internet map-making.
ColorBrewer 2.0 is an online tool designed to help people select good color schemes for maps and other graphics.

Axis Maps worked with us every step of the way to produce a top-of-its-class mapping application, fully customized for our needs. As our project expanded, Axis Maps was able to fully accommodate our additions, building in robust new features that worked seamlessly with existing functionality. They were responsive to our many questions and worked with us extensively through the testing process. We’re thrilled with our final California Healthy Places Index map!
It was a pleasure working with you and your team on AskCHIS Neighborhood Edition. Thank you very much for the professionalism, dedication, and excitement you brought to the project and placed in your work.
This Chicago typographic map is a brilliant design. From the street names that make the streets themselves to the representation of parks and Lake Michigan, it’s an exquisite use of typefaces.
