Cartos · Editions

One engine. Purpose-built editions.

Cartos is the common engine. Industries run over it as licensed editions — each a switchable catalogue of department modules over the same data fabric, agent, and shell. Nine editions ship today: Government (Atlas), Electric Utility (Grid), Airport (Tower), Transportation (Milepost), Infrastructure Delivery (Blueprint), continental Government (Africa), critical-infrastructure protection (Guardian), and reactive crisis monitoring (Sentry), and Agriculture Intelligence (Harvest) — each licensable as its own sovereign instance. One platform, nine industries, 67 individual department modules. Cartos Guardian and Cartos Sentry are a deliberate pair — proactive strike-risk protection feeding a reactive change-detection monitor — now live at guardian.cartosatlas.com and sentry.cartosatlas.com. Cartos Harvest went live at harvest.cartosatlas.com on 29 July 2026.

The model

Engine → editions → instances.

Build the hard part once — the sovereign substrate, the agent, the shell — then re-skin and re-catalogue it per industry. A new vertical is a slice, not a fork; a new customer is an instance, not a rewrite.

The engine

One Rust core + web shell: tenant- and team-isolated data fabric, a built-in AI agent, MapLibre 2D and Cesium 3D, and the admin, theming, and capability systems every edition inherits.

The editions

Each edition is a curated set of department modules for one industry — its own default theme, its own catalogue, its own sample geography. Turn modules on and off per client.

The instances

An edition can be licensed to more than one party as a separate sovereign instance — its own tenant, data, and identity, all in-territory.

Live today

Nine editions live. 67 department modules.

Every edition below runs on the same substrate, with real operational data seeded per module, KPI dashboards, and the ask-the-map agent — each reachable on its own sovereign subdomain. Four of the nine were built in the last six weeks. Every screenshot on this page is the running product, not a rendering.

Government edition · critical-infrastructure protection

Cartos Guardian

Sample geography · the UAE & Strait of Hormuz

Proactive protection for civil infrastructure that could be a strike target. Five broad domains — command, energy, utilities, emergency services, and defense — over 103 curated UAE critical-infrastructure sites, each carrying a transparent, explainable 0–100 strike-risk score (criticality × Strait-of-Hormuz proximity × category weight). Grid-vulnerability, strategic-vector, and POI-collateral overlays, plus historical-imagery and live AIS/ADS-B traffic layers.

Cartos Guardian — Command & Risk: the strike-risk assessment panel ranking 50 assessed sites (8 critical, 15 high, 21 elevated, 6 moderate) over the UAE common operating picture, with a site's full attribute record open. — **Command & Risk** — 50 assessed sites ranked, 3,538 features live on one picture.

Cartos Guardian — the strike-risk score decomposed for Jebel Ali Power & Desalination into criticality +45, Hormuz exposure +18 and category value +23. — **Explainable score** — criticality +45, Hormuz exposure +18, category +23. No black box.

Government edition · reactive crisis monitoring

Cartos Sentry

Sample geography · the UAE & Strait of Hormuz

The reactive counterpart to Guardian: watch Guardian's highest-risk assets, autonomously detect a change, and open a scored incident with cross-modality evidence. An editable monitoring watchlist feeds the platform's first background ingestion daemon, which searches satellite catalogues, runs real optical/SAR/thermal change detectors, fuses a Low/Medium/High/Confirmed confidence band (never a fabricated percentage), and raises + dispatches an alert — all with a hard guard so a degraded model never fabricates an incident. From there: a side-by-side/swipe/change Ops View, per-building damage triage, an InSAR coherence context layer, one-click incident reports, and cost-visible commercial-tasking connectors (Umbra/Capella/ICEYE/Maxar/Planet) for the crisis-hour reactivity open imagery can't deliver.

Cartos Sentry — Crisis Command: the incident console showing a new high-severity surface change at Abu Dhabi International beside the monitoring watchlist of 10 assets, 8 of them P1, each with optical, SAR and thermal modalities and a scan interval. — **Crisis Command** — 10 monitored assets, 8 at P1, scanned on an interval by the daemon.

Cartos Sentry — a detection where optical (14% new structure) and SAR (18% backscatter) independently agree, raising the confidence band to Confirmed, with report, DOCX and task-imagery actions. — **Cross-modality fusion** — optical and SAR agreeing raises the band. Never a fake percentage.

Cartos Sentry — 35 VIIRS/FIRMS active-fire detections over the Das Island Oil/Gas Terminal AOI in the last five days, sized by fire radiative power, raised as a critical incident at 90% cell confidence. — **Thermal** — 35 active-fire detections over Das Island, raised as a critical incident.

Cartos Sentry — the Ops View optical change mode between two Sentinel-2 dates, appeared in red and removed in blue, with threshold and boost controls. — **Ops View** — swipe, side-by-side, overlay and change, with analyst-tunable thresholds.

Cartos Sentry — SAR change detection over the Das Island terminal AOI, cloud-independent, with a sensitivity slider and appeared/removed/same classes. — **SAR** — cloud- and night-independent change, when optical can't answer.

Cartos Sentry — the operations dashboard: 5 open incidents, 1 analyst-confirmed, 10 assets watched, 8 P1, 0 scans overdue, 6 alerts sent and $669 of commercial tasking spend, with severity, confidence and status-funnel charts. — **Cost-visible ops** — 0 scans overdue, 6 alerts sent, **$669** tasking spend, 1 order.

The pair: proactive risk, then reactive response.

Guardian and Sentry are not two products that happen to sit next to each other. Guardian's per-site strike-risk score is Sentry's watchlist priority — and that priority sets the scan interval, which sets the alert threshold, which sets how much commercial tasking spend a crisis-hour incident can defensibly justify. One number carries all the way from risk model to procurement decision.

01 · GUARDIAN

Score the estate

103 curated sites scored 0–100 from criticality, Hormuz exposure and category weight — every component visible.

02 · HANDOFF

Seed the watchlist

Tier drops straight into Sentry: P1 ≥ 80, P2 ≥ 65, P3 below. Priority sets the scan interval — 12h for P1, 24h for P2.

03 · SENTRY

Detect and fuse

A background daemon searches the catalogues and runs real optical, SAR and thermal detectors. Independent agreement raises the confidence band.

04 · RESPOND

Task and report

Open a scored incident, dispatch the alert, export the DOCX, and — when open imagery can't answer in the hour — task Umbra, Capella, ICEYE, Maxar or Planet with the cost on screen.

Agriculture-intelligence edition

Cartos Harvest

Sample geography · Kenya & Nigeria

STAC-native crop intelligence for ministries of agriculture, agri-insurers/lenders, and extension services: seasonal-phenology crop-type classification, NDVI-anomaly crop health, a season-NDVI yield proxy with an honest inter-annual uncertainty band, water-stress/drought detection, field-boundary delineation with human-in-the-loop review, and a transparent 0–100 agri-risk score with an index-insurance trigger — all resolved live from Sentinel-2 via Microsoft Planetary Computer. Reuses Cartos Africa's country-scope and foundation-layer fabric rather than rebuilding it.

Cartos Harvest — Harvest Command: the country food-security overview with a crop calendar showing plant, grow and harvest windows per crop and season for Kenya and Nigeria, beside the navigate widget and the Cartos agent. — **Harvest Command** — crop calendars by country, season and agro-zone; plant / grow / harvest status live for the current month.

Cartos Harvest — Crop Type & Land Use over sub-metre satellite imagery of Kenyan smallholder fields, with the Available Here panel resolving seven candidate layers for the current scope and zoom. — **Crop Type & Land Use** — parcel-level class + confidence, over the best imagery available *here*.

Cartos Harvest — Field Boundaries & Registry with Overture Places points over high-resolution imagery and a selected feature's attribute card, part of the segmentation → human review → authoritative parcel fabric workflow. — **Field Boundaries & Registry** — segmentation → human-in-the-loop review → authoritative parcel fabric + farmer registry.

Cartos Harvest — Yield Forecast over the Lake Victoria basin, a weather-plus-phenology yield regression with uncertainty bands and regional reporting. — **Yield Forecast** — a season-NDVI yield proxy with an honest inter-annual uncertainty band, not a single confident number.

Per-project access control (Milepost & Blueprint): project-scoped surfaces enforce per-project and portfolio-wide grants — default-deny, assignable to a department, agency, team, or user — so a portfolio can be shared exactly as far as the org chart allows.

Cartos Africa is live at africa.cartosatlas.com — a standalone continental Government edition for African governments and national mapping agencies, with real data across all nine modules and subnational country scope over the 54 African Union states.

Cartos Guardian (guardian.cartosatlas.com) and Cartos Sentry (sentry.cartosatlas.com) are a deliberate pair — Guardian's per-site strike-risk score seeds Sentry's monitoring-watchlist priority, which in turn sizes the commercial-tasking spend a crisis-hour incident can defensibly justify.

Cartos Harvest is live at harvest.cartosatlas.com — the ninth edition, and the fastest to ship, because it inherited Cartos Africa's country-scope and foundation-layer fabric rather than rebuilding it.

Every edition inherits it

Built once in the engine, reused in every edition.

The differences between editions are the modules and the theme. Everything below is the shared engine — so every vertical, present and future, gets it for free.

Operational data

Real data, per module

An admin-managed datasource + layer catalogue seeds real operational data into every module — thousands of live features across all eight editions — scoped by tenant, edition, module, group, role, and user type.

Cartography

Full symbology engine

Attribute-driven styling — categorical and graduated colour and size, legends, and real 3D: polygon fill-extrusions and deck.gl 3D point columns, configured per layer in-app.

Dashboards

KPI dashboards

Every module carries a configurable KPI dashboard bound to live catalog data — compose the cards, read the health at a glance, and drill from a KPI straight to the place on the map.

Agent

Ask the map

One AI agent reasons across every accessible datasource in every edition — discover layers, filter by attribute, find what's within a distance, group and count — always inside the asking user's access scope.

Street imagery

Mapillary coverage overlay

Crowd-sourced street-level photos on the map — plus an agent tool to search them by place — labelled clearly as external reference data (© Mapillary contributors), never confused with sovereign ground truth.

Field

Mobile ground truth

Cartos Field stands up no-code, offline-first mobile apps whose captures surface back inside these modules and are queryable by the agent — the ground-truth edge for every edition. See it →

Admin & theming

Configured per client

A three-tier Keycloak-backed admin model turns modules and features on per deployment; a platform theme system re-skins the whole surface — one palette or a per-module override, with the map recolouring to match.

License an edition

Your industry, on a sovereign engine.

Nine editions ship today, and the next vertical is a catalogue away — Harvest went from prompt package to a merged, running agriculture-intelligence edition in weeks, reusing Africa's country-scope and foundation-layer fabric rather than rebuilding it. Bring a real operational workflow and a sovereignty constraint; we'll stand it up as its own instance under NDA. Design-partner cohorts are deliberately small.
