Global Library

Felt's curated global catalog. Regional boundaries, demographics, imagery, and more. Available to every workspace at no storage cost.

The Global Library is a data source that every Felt workspace has access to, pre-populated with a catalog of curated datasets maintained by Felt. It's the same collection of layers you'll find at felt.com/explore, exposed directly in your workspace alongside your own data sources.

What's in it

The Global Library is organized by topic, with coverage that spans:

• Administrative boundaries — countries, states and provinces, counties, municipalities, neighborhoods, census geographies.

• Demographics — population, housing, and economic indicators at common census geographies.

• Environment and land cover — elevation, land cover, hydrology, protected areas.

• Imagery and basemaps — aerial imagery, satellite mosaics, reference basemaps.

• Transportation and infrastructure — roads, transit, points of interest.

Adding a Global Library layer to a map

1. Open the in-map library with or open the Global Library tab from the workspace homepage.

2. Browse by topic or search within the Global library.

3. Click a layer to preview it.

4. From the preview panel, click Add to map.

A copy of the layer is placed on your map. You can restyle, filter, or edit it freely — changes don't flow back to the catalog.
