Watermark free no-code fast choropleths for India

[Saket Choudhary]

Hi Datameet community,

Want to display your dynamically updated data on a beautiful choropleth map of India — without ever leaving your website, RStudio, or Jupyter notebook?

BharatViz (MIT license) lets you do exactly that! It works directly with CSV or spreadsheet data and offers high-quality exports in SVG, PDF, and PNG formats.

Website: https://bharatviz.saketlab.org

Quick examples to get you started:

• Jupyter/Colab demo → https://colab.research.google.com/github/saketlab/bharatviz/blob/main/server/examples/BharatViz_demo.ipynb
• RMarkdown example → https://rpubs.com/saketkc/bharatviz

You can now embed interactive maps directly into your own websites or blogs. We’re offering this as a completely free service (as long as we can sustainably run the server).

No watermarks, no sign-ups required. Just pure, easy visualisation of state- and district-level data.

Feedback, suggestions, bug reports, and success stories are always very welcome!

Special thanks to Sreeram Kandimalla (for his excellent work on Indian administrative boundaries) and Shivakumar Jolad's group (for India State Stories) - these fantastic open resources helped make BharatViz possible.

Happy mapping!

Thanks, Saket
