Course Overview

Openlayers 6 From Scratch With A Project

Master OpenLayers (JavaScript web mapping library) and build web mapping applications

**DISCOUNT CODE**: Use the current month in uppercase followed by the year.

Examples: MARCH2026, APRIL2026, MAY2026


OpenLayers is a powerful, community-driven, open-source, JavaScript-based web mapping library, which allows us to develop web mapping applications using a great number of geospatial data sources, data formats, and open geospatial standards such as from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC).

This course focuses on the latest version of the Openlayers 6, and is the most comprehensive and modern Openlayers course you can find in UDEMY. It starts with very basics and goes all the way to advanced concepts. Once we master all the Openlayers concepts, we build a complete Openlayers project in the last section.

By the end of this course, you can build amazing web mapping applications using Openlayers.

    So far, it's been a great learning experience. Although the course is outdated with the latest versions of OpenLayers, it still provides the right tools to quickly get up to speed with the latest version (I'm using OL 10.6.1). The instructor clearly explains the concepts, so it makes it even easier to review the documentation and follow the examples. I have even managed to replicate the examples with a React Frontend. So really great course! thanks!!

    Excellent , I regret I should have learned this more early, because now some example are not up-to-date . Totally it's very helpful. This course get me lots of knowledge about map, mostly is clear. Nothing's perfect.

    Very nice course! I already learned a lot. It would have been nice to add a chapter to show how to adapt the ol code examples and how to use the library with npm. Maybe additonal chapters how to work with extensions and to migrate to OL7 would be very helpful as well.
