Beta Phase Has Started

The digital marketplace Topio.market is currently in the beta phase. People and companies who are interested can easily register for free. You are invited to send feedback to the developers and to submit ideas and suggestions for improvement via an anonymous form.

The platform is scheduled to officially go online in the first half of 2023. In contrast to many other platforms, there are no additional costs for buyers or sellers on Topio.market. In the future, the platform will be financed primarily through additional services, such as the creation of interactive WebGIS applications, address enrichment or the integration of geodata in Jupyter Notebook. Through these services, the purchased geodata can be processed directly within the Topio.market marketplace.
