Our Community
“The whole team was incredibly enthusiastic about trying the Geospatial API. We [had] the idea for a world scale alien invasion game for more than 3 years and we were waiting for the right tech to become available to finally start making it a reality… Augmented Reality. And when we got Geospatial and started checking it the results exceeded our wildest expectations greatly!"
