GLOBUS is the engineering blog of Globus Software, the company behind GLMap, an offline map engine used across Flutter, Kotlin Multiplatform, and React Native. The blog documents how the map engine is built, from terrain rendering and routing to the low-level geometry work that makes map display fast.
The site’s core content is technical articles written by the team, often with reproducible benchmarks and open-source code. Recent posts cover triangulating 3.7 million map polygons in 489 ms, the cost of a map vertex, handling misspelled place searches, and teaching the Valhalla routing engine about hiking terrain. Source code such as the earstrip triangulator is released under the ISC license.
It is aimed at developers and technical teams working with maps, GIS, or offline navigation, especially those using GLMap or evaluating map rendering approaches. Readers should expect C++ and WebAssembly details rather than product tutorials.
Use the blog as a reference when optimizing map rendering or choosing a triangulation library; the benchmark comparisons and open-source releases are the most directly useful parts. Overall, it is a focused engineering resource for map developers.
