Add docs/comparison.md, comparing GeoLibre against QGIS, ArcGIS Pro,
ArcGIS Online, Felt, and kepler.gl across five tables: platform basics,
data and formats, analysis and processing, cartography and layout, and
automation/extensibility/sharing.Follow the tables with per-platform guidance on when each one is the
right choice, and a section stating plainly where GeoLibre is not the
strongest option (large local datasets, GDAL format breadth, specialized
Esri toolboxes, enterprise data management, maturity) so the rest of the
page is worth trusting.Scope the non-GeoLibre columns to mainstream out-of-the-box behavior as
of August 2026, credit separate products as separate (QField, ArcGIS
Field Maps, ArcGIS Dashboards/StoryMaps), and invite corrections via
GitHub issues.Wire the page into the mkdocs nav after Features, and cross-link it from
index.md and features.md.- Address CodeRabbit review feedback
- Felt: name the separate Felt Field App for iOS/Android in the Mobile
row rather than calling it responsive web, record its offline areas
with sync-on-reconnect, and note the single-tenant AWS deployment in
the data-residency and self-hosting rows. Verified against
felt.com/platform/field-app and help.felt.com/administration/self-hosted-felt. - Felt: the Dashboards row said "—", but Felt ships dashboard
components (statistics, bar, histogram, time series). Corrected. - kepler.gl: the analysis, spatial SQL, and AI assistant rows understated
it. It ships a DuckDB-backed SQL Data Explorer over loaded data and
remote URLs, spatial joins through its assistant, and an AI assistant
supporting OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, and local Ollama with a
user-supplied key. Verified against the kepler.gl user guides. - OGC services row: GetCapabilities is the WMS/WFS/WMTS discovery
mechanism; OGC API Features/Tiles discovers from a landing page,
collection, or items URL. Split the two rather than attributing
GetCapabilities to both. - Esri row:
.gdbis a local File Geodatabase format, not a network
service. Renamed the row to "Esri services and geodatabases" and
labeled the entry accordingly. - Updated the "Choose Felt" and "Choose kepler.gl" paragraphs to match
the corrected tables — Felt's self-hosting option and field
collection, and kepler.gl's SQL/AI analysis path.
- Address review feedback
- Real-time collaboration row said "self-hosted server", implying
self-hosting is required. Per docs/collaboration.md the default relay
is the hosted Cloudflare Durable Object at collab.geolibre.app
(workers/collab), with workers/collab-node as the self-hostable
option. Now reads "hosted relay, optionally self-hosted". - ArcGIS Pro reads Zarr as a native multidimensional raster type, not
"via extensions" — corrected against the Esri multidimensional raster
types documentation. - ArcGIS Pro STAC support is built in (STAC connections and the Explore
STAC pane, since Pro 3.2), not "via add-ins". - Same row, not flagged but the same error: QGIS reads Zarr through
GDAL's built-in Zarr driver (core since GDAL 3.4), so
"plugin-assisted" was wrong. - ArcGIS Online AI assistant cell said "—", but it ships the Arcade
assistant (beta) across Map Viewer, Field Maps Designer, Experience
Builder, and Scene Viewer, plus the wider AI assistants family.
- Address CodeRabbit review feedback
- QGIS STAC support is built in, not "via plugins": QGIS creates STAC
connections from the Browser panel and the Data Source Manager's STAC
tab, covering both static catalogs and STAC APIs. Verified against the
QGIS user manual's OGC client support page. Left the version
unqualified since the page compares current releases.
- Address CodeRabbit review feedback
- The "Esri services and geodatabases" row left ArcGIS Online as
"Native", which after the row was renamed in 03893bb5 read as direct
file geodatabase support. ArcGIS Online serves hosted layers, so the
cell now reads "Hosted feature, tile, imagery, and scene layers",
matching the documented hosted web layer types. ArcGIS Pro keeps
"Native", where it is accurate for both services and geodatabases.
