Open data in GeoLibre

Summary

Find geospatial datasets on a webpage and open selected files together in GeoLibre.

Detailed description

Open data in GeoLibre turns dataset catalogs, documentation pages, and project websites into launch points for an interactive map.

Click the extension icon to find supported data links on the current page, filter them by vector or raster type, choose the files you need, and open them together in GeoLibre. Supported links include GeoJSON, GeoParquet, PMTiles, Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF, and ZIP archives containing GeoJSON.

The extension also reads schema.org download metadata, understands existing GeoLibre links, pairs matching GeoLibre style files, and discovers the complete file inventory on virtualized Source Cooperative repository pages.

Privacy is deliberately narrow: the extension scans only the active page after you click it. It stores no browsing data, runs no analytics, and requests no permanent access to websites.

Dataset servers must allow browser access through CORS. Authenticated, session-bound, and blob: links cannot be transferred to the GeoLibre tab.

Permission justification

  • activeTab: grants temporary access to the page only after the user invokes the extension, so its dataset links can be inspected.
  • scripting: injects the local, packaged dataset scanner into that active tab.

The extension does not request host permissions, storage, browsing history, downloads, cookies, or remote code.
