## Key features

[**Upload Anything**](https://help.felt.com/upload-anything/files)

Work with virtually any spatial data format. Upload files, connect through URLs, spreadsheets, cloud sources, or directly from QGIS. Felt handles both raster and vector data, automatically geocodes and boundary matches, and supports scheduled refreshes to keep your data up-to-date.

[**Layers**](https://help.felt.com/layers/table-view)

When data is imported into Felt, it becomes a Layer that you can style, edit, and analyze. View and filter the underlying data table, perform spatial analysis, apply custom styling, and configure informative popups to create rich, multi-dimensional maps.

[**Dashboards & Apps**](https://help.felt.com/dashboards-and-apps/components)

Transform maps into interactive experiences that respond to user interaction with Components like charts, time sliders, and data tables. Developers can extend this functionality using the Felt API or SDK.
