Students
Your maps, online, ready for employers.
Host coursework and project layers on Sarkoa. Share a public map link or portfolio page so hiring managers can explore your work without installing GIS software.
Where Sarkoa fits
What you can ship
Keep project maps online after the course ends, not stuck on a USB drive.
Share a single link employers can open on any device.
Stand out with interactive maps instead of static screenshots in a PDF.
How Sarkoa helps
Capabilities that fit the workflow
Free to start your portfolio
Create a free account, upload your layers, and publish maps or a public portfolio page. No credit card required to get a link you can put on a resume or LinkedIn.
Easy for hiring managers
Employers pan, zoom, and explore your data in the browser. They do not need QGIS, ArcGIS, or a large download to see what you built.
Same tools you use in class
Upload from the web app, QGIS plugin, or CLI so your portfolio matches the workflows employers already use.
You keep the originals
Source files stay yours to download and reuse. The hosted maps are the shareable face of your work.
A typical workflow
From upload to deliverable
Step 1
Create a free Sarkoa account with your student email or personal address.
Step 2
Upload project GeoJSON, Shapefile, GeoTIFF, or another supported format.
Step 3
Build a map (or turn on your public portfolio) and set it to public.
Step 4
Add the link to your resume, portfolio site, or job application.
Recommended plan
Start with Free
Free is enough for most student portfolios. Move to Community later if you need more storage or unlimited tiles under fair use for heavier traffic.
Your first map is five minutes away.
Free to start. No credit card required. Your originals stay yours.
