Best Platform to work on Maps

I am working on a Web Based project in ASP.NET MVC 5. In this Project we need to display map of my country and boundaries of provinces and districts level. Furthermore we have the requirement to display some information tabular/Charts whenever the mouse hovers upon any location within the project.
We have complete collection of shape files data defining the boundaries of the whole country.
But currently the organization is not interested in buying license or may not be interested in future too.
Now I need to ask which Map Service Provider is best for above said tasks. I have gone through (Google Maps, ArcGis, QGis) but not able to finalize.
One thing more to add "This application will remain in use by a Non-Profitable/ public Sector Organization for the benefit of General public"
Maps
Google
QGIS
ArcGIS

Hi,
I recommend you to use QGIS. It is free, fast and easy to use, I have used it for a similar purpose. However, you will need to upload your web map folder to a web server, to make it available online.
Good luck!

Inácio Mateus Assane I really like this question, and although you have obviously worked with several GIS packages the fact that you want your project to be user friendly and stay in the public domain I would suggest ArcGIS StoryMaps. https://storymaps.arcgis.com/
Best of luck-
R.

You can use open street map which is completely open source. You can also use tools such as mapbox to make maps using open street map. Read this link to learn a little more. Go open source!

How to create a heat map?

  • Termeh HesamTermeh Hesam
I have some geospatial data points (X and Y in decimal degrees) and the concentrations of a certain parameter for each point. I want to create a heat map to show the density of the concentrations not the density of data points. In Youtube, I found several tutorial for how to create heat map to show the points density. But I want to show the concentrations density in my case.
By the way, I'm using Qgis to create the map.
I appreciate if you share any information or experience in this case.

I want to make a map that consists of nodes and links in GIS(if in QGIS it'll be better but ArcGIS is also ok).
The information that I only have is this csv file, that contains the link object ID, coordinates of two points of each link, and the uclidean length. You can ignore 'connectivity' tab.
In this situation, can I make the map? If so, how can I? Please please help me :(

Taking into account the present India-China rising tensions over Galwan Valley,Ladakh.
Is there any service or website where one can easily access live satellite images and can actually see the buildups by troops over the border in the same region?
I have tried Google Maps/Google Earth but it turns out that area hasn't been updated.
For those of who didn't know about the place. Below is the google maps link to that region
