Mappinest is a GIS development service founded by Boris Vitlić in 2022. Since then, we have partnered with clients across various industries to deliver custom mapping applications tailored to real-world needs.

Backed by a strong background in IT & GIS science, we combine a deep love for maps with a modern web stack. This unique blend allows us to craft intuitive and solid web and mobile solutions. We build interactive maps and spatial data pipelines, and we also provide budget-friendly map hosting for your geodata.

Built and maintained by a small but focused team, we emphasize reliability, performance, and long-term maintainability. Beyond its core APIs, the service supports custom integrations and extensions where needed, helping teams and communities build and ship real GIS products.

Process

Our Approach

Requirements & Data

We start by understanding your requirements, existing data, data volume, and cost implications. We focus on clear communication to avoid unnecessary over-development.

Architecture & Design

Once the data and use-cases are clear, we align on architecture, design direction, and the tech stack based on performance needs and costs.

Iterative Development

We deliver in small, testable iterations, building data pipelines, APIs, and map rendering features, automating workflows where it makes sense while sharing early demos to validate direction.

Deployment & Support

We deploy production-ready systems, optimize performance, and provide clear handover and documentation so solutions remain maintainable long-term.

Stack

Technology Stack

We use up-to-date GIS and web technologies, following modern engineering patterns to build scalable, production-ready systems.
