Start from a template

Browse the template gallery on Discover and create a project in one click

The Discover page is Atlas's template gallery. Instead of starting from a blank project, you can pick a template that already includes the right datasets, layers, styling, widgets, and forms for a specific use case — real estate, environmental analysis, asset inspection, urban planning, and many more. One click and the template is duplicated into your workspace as a new project, ready to customise.

Open Discover

Click Discover in the workspace sidebar (or visit /discover). The page opens with:

  • A hero header explaining the gallery.
  • Recommended templates based on your workspace and recent activity.
  • A full Template grid with every public template.

Browse and filter

Three filter controls live in the top bar:

  • Search — free-text search across template titles and descriptions.
  • Categories — narrow templates by domain (e.g. real estate, environment, infrastructure).
  • Components — filter by what the template includes (e.g. forms, dashboards, workflows).

Combine filters to drill in. Click Clear filters to reset the grid.

Preview a template

Click a template card to open its detail view. The detail panel shows the template title, description, screenshots, included components, and a button to use it. Use the back arrow (or close the panel) to return to the grid.

Create a project from a template

In the template detail view, click Use template (or the equivalent action). Atlas creates a new project in your workspace, populated with everything the template provides:

  • All datasets and layers.
  • Default styling and basemap.
  • Pre-built interfaces.
  • Any forms or workflows the template ships with.

You're redirected straight into the new project. From there, edit it like any other project — rename it, replace data, tweak the interface, invite collaborators.

Customising afterwards

Templates are starting points, not commitments. After creating a project from a template, you can:

The original template is unaffected by your edits — your project is an independent copy.

Limits and notes

  • Some templates may rely on premium connectors or regional integrations; if your plan doesn't include them, those parts of the project may be empty until you upgrade or swap the data source.
  • Recommended templates are personalised; new accounts see a generic list until activity builds up.
