Tutorials, Tips, and Product Updates
Technical articles and tutorials for GeoBlazor developers. Learn how to implement mapping features, integrate ArcGIS tools, and build enterprise GIS applications using Blazor, C#, and Razor syntax.
GeoBlazor 4.7 makes GeoBlazor Pro free and open source under the MIT license. License keys are optional, Pro no longer blocks a map over a license check, and apps upgrade without a code change. Here is what changed, what it means if you hold a paid Pro license, and where V5 is headed.
Live vehicle records can arrive faster than a map needs them. Learn how to keep one position per vehicle, send GeoBlazor one ApplyEdits batch per timer tick, and flag stale vehicles from their own clocks.
Esri has retired legacy API keys. Learn how to identify an affected GeoBlazor app, create a replacement credential, update ArcGISApiKey, and prepare for expiration and rotation before April 15, 2027.
A look at the stack, workflow, and surprises behind a live, 30-minute stage build that turns a blank terminal into a Blazor app visualizing ~24,000 Iowa bridges, color-coded by condition, with sidebar filters and a 'Find Bridges at Risk' query — driven by plain-English prompts to Claude Code on top of GeoBlazor and the ArcGIS Maps SDK.
GeoBlazor Pro 4.5 introduced the FeatureTableWidget, an interactive attribute table for your map's feature layers. In this tutorial, we wire it up from scratch: binding a layer, filtering rows to the map extent, adding a zoom-to-feature action column, exploring related records, and highlighting features with a drawn geometry.
GeoBlazor 4.6 is here for both Core and Pro. This release brings strongly typed browser geolocation, a streamlined LocationService, named geometry edit results, new Pro geometry and popup components, and more reliable map components, including a SketchWidget that keeps its tools enabled no matter when its layer is assigned. Here is everything new, plus the breaking changes to review before you upgrade.
GeoJSON is a ubiquitous format for sharing geographic data on the web. With GeoBlazor's GeoJSONLayer, you can easily pull that data into your Blazor map, style it, and add interactivity, all without writing JavaScript. In this post, we walk through a sample that loads live earthquake data from the USGS, styles points by magnitude, and surfaces interactive popups.
Bridge the gap between native and web with GeoBlazor and Uno Platform — then put real railroad bridges on the map to prove it.
GeoBlazor Pro is a developer license, not a deployment license. Pay for seats at build time, deploy to unlimited customers royalty-free. Here's how our licensing actually works and what registration keys are.
