LuxCarta Named to Geoawesome's 2026 Top 100 Geospatial List

3:31

## Named among the world's leading geospatial companies 

LuxCarta is proud to announce it has been named to the 2026 Global Top 100 Geospatial Companies, Geoawesome's annual recognition of the most innovative and influential organizations in the geospatial industry. This year's edition marks the list's 15th anniversary, and for the first time, the selection was shaped directly by the global geospatial community, with more than 125 professionals from around the world contributing as evaluators.

## A recognition shaped by the community

Being named to this milestone edition means something different this year. Rather than a closed evaluation process, the 2026 list reflects the direct input of practitioners and experts across the geospatial industry, making inclusion a reflection of how peers and the wider community view LuxCarta's contribution to the field. It is a recognition we are especially proud to share for the 15th anniversary edition.

LuxCarta is listed as a Returning company for 2026, alongside a group that spans foundation models, Earth observation analytics, 3D mapping, spatial digital twins, mobility intelligence, and climate and sustainability solutions.

## Structured geodata built for real decisions 

For 20 years, LuxCarta has built the structured vector, 3D, and raster geodata that sits beneath modern planning and simulation workflows. Our data supports telecom network design, defense and flight simulation, and digital twin programs around the world.

Photoreal rendering has advanced rapidly across the industry, but the operational decisions our customers make, where to place a cell, how a signal propagates through a dense urban environment, what a mission planner needs to see, depend on queryable geometry, attributes, and accuracy commitments. That is the structured layer LuxCarta has spent two decades producing at country and continental scale.

## Powered by our team, partners, and customers 

This achievement belongs to the LuxCarta team, our production and engineering partners, and the operators, defense agencies, and platform builders who trust our data in live workflows. Their collaboration continues to push the boundaries of what structured geodata can enable across telecom, defense, simulation, and digital twin markets.

## Looking ahead 

LuxCarta remains focused on delivering high-impact, production-grade geospatial data that helps organizations plan, simulate, and operate with confidence. We are grateful to Geoawesome and the global community of evaluators for this recognition, and we look forward to continuing to shape a more accurately mapped and better-understood world.

## About LuxCarta 

LuxCarta is a global provider of digital map layers and 3D geospatial data. For more than 20 years, LuxCarta has produced raster, vector, and 3D geodata layers, including BrightEarth and HDTM, used by telecom operators, defense and simulation organizations, and digital twin platforms worldwide.
