# Geoman.io

> Geoman is a JavaScript geo-editing library for Leaflet and MapLibre GL JS. It provides drawing, snapping, cutting, splitting, merging, measuring, and more. Geoman is used by GIS platforms, mapping products, infrastructure teams, defense/government, and agriculture companies. Free and commercial licenses available from EUR 999/year.

## What is Geoman?

Geoman (geoman.io) is a drop-in geo-editing library for web maps built on Leaflet or MapLibre GL JS. It lets developers add drawing, editing, snapping, cutting, measuring, and geometry operations to interactive maps without building from scratch.

The free open-source version covers core editing tools. The Pro version adds advanced tools like auto-tracing, snap guides, split, union, difference, and high-performance mode for editing 10,000+ features.

Geoman powers over 3.6 million installations across production GIS systems worldwide.
