Example Tilesets

Some of the spatial datasets offered in the Data Observatory are very large (a few TB), either due to their global coverage, such as WorldPop or NASADEM, or their fine granularity, such as ACS Sociodemographics at census block group level and their visualization requires the creation of tilesets. Tilesets creation is currently only available for BigQuery users through the CARTO Analytics Toolbox.

We have created a collection of ready-to-use Data Observatory tilesets from public datasets that are publicly available in the BigQuery project carto-do-public-tilesets.

Use the gallery below to browse examples of the types of visualizations that can achieved along with a table that details how to find the location and characteristics of all available tilesets.
