Mapcreator is a browser-based mapping tool designed with broadcasters and news organisations in mind. It quickly creates high-quality map animations or still images, eliminating the need for post-production or specialised cartographic skills.
Custom styling ensures every map aligns with the brand's visual identity, while an intuitive interface simplifies the process of highlighting routes, regions, and key locations.
Mapcreator’s base data is updated daily and includes live data overlays for natural disasters such as wildfires, earthquakes, hurricanes, and more.
Mapcreator now offers extensions for Adobe Illustrator and After Effects, which the company claims provide creative teams with enhanced control and flexibility directly within preferred design environments.
Additionally, Mapcreator offers ENPS integration, allowing for coordination with newsroom workflows.
For teams requiring maps on the go, the Locator Maps feature facilitates the creation of branded maps with a single click, even on mobile devices. Maps can be exported as true vector files or responsive embeds in multiple sizes, guaranteeing crisp, multi-platform graphics.
