Questions people ask

Is deck.gl or Micromine better?
Neither clearly leads. deck.gl starts at On request and Micromine at On request, and user ratings are close enough to be indistinguishable. Choose on capability and platform support.
Which is cheaper, deck.gl or Micromine?
deck.gl starts at On request and Micromine at On request.
Does deck.gl or Micromine run on more platforms?
Both run on Web, so platform support will not decide this one for you.
What is deck.gl best used for?
deck.gl is most often used for gpu-accelerated visualisation of large geospatial datasets in the browser, composing map overlays from reusable layers, adding data layers on top of google maps or mapbox basemaps, high-precision plotting using 64-bit gpu computation.
