The Library

16 tools. One workspace.

Every category a working GIS practice actually needs — no separate logins, no scattered utilities.

Coordinate Converter

DMS ⇄ Decimal Degrees, plus free-form coordinate parsing.

KML Studio

CSV, Excel, Shapefile → styled KML/KMZ for Google Earth.

Vector Analysis Toolkit

Buffer, Clip, Intersect, Dissolve, and 11 more operations.

Survey Tools Bundle

Bearing, traverse closure, chainage, and 3 more calculators.

Raster Tools Bundle

Slope, hillshade, contour, NDVI — from DEM and satellite imagery.

Mapping Tools

Layer viewer, coordinate picker, distance & area measurement.

GIS Data Editor

Draw, upload, and edit points/lines/polygons — with schema-based attributes and 7 export formats.

GIS Format Converter

Shapefile, GeoJSON, GeoPackage, CSV, KML/KMZ, DXF — any format to any other.

Parcel Splitter

Split a polygon into equal-area lots, fixed-width strips, or target-area plots.

Unit & Area Converter

Acres, hectares, square feet, plus regional land units like Bigha and Biswa.

Bulk CRS / Projection Converter

Reproject an entire file to any EPSG code — searches the real EPSG registry.

Map Layout Generator

Compose a print-ready map with layers, precise scale, scale bar, and legend.

Network & Routing Analysis

Shortest path and service area analysis along a line network.

Vector Data Repair

Detect and fix geometry errors — self-intersections, duplicates, invalid rings.

Hydrology Tools

Depression filling, flow direction/accumulation, stream network with Strahler order, and watershed delineation.

Hybrid LULC Classification

Automatic K-means + NDVI/NDWI/NDBI classification, refined with your own samples — or build entirely new classes.

The Process

From raw data to deliverable, in four steps.

01

Upload

Upload a file, draw on the map, or just type coordinates — whatever you already have.

02

Process

Every calculation happens on the server, in proper projected units — not approximated in your browser.

03

Preview

Check the result before committing — attributes, styling, and geometry, right in the tool.

04

Download

Export in the format you actually need — Shapefile, KML, GeoTIFF, DXF, and more.

Why SM Datum Works Differently

Built for how the work actually happens — whichever kind of work that is.

A GIS professional running a real workflow and someone who just needs to fix one Excel file are using the same platform, built the same way, at the same time.

Pick the Result, Not the Steps

Hydrology Tools doesn't make you run depression-filling and flow-direction yourself first — pick "Watershed" and the prerequisite steps happen automatically underneath. You ask for the outcome.

It Notices What You Probably Need

Upload data into Vector Analysis and the buffer distance is already suggested from your data's real size — not a generic "100." Type a category like "School" into KML Studio and it picks the actual school icon, not just the next one in a rotation.

Move a Result Into the Next Tool Directly

Repair a file's geometry, then send that exact result straight into Vector Analysis or KML Studio — no re-downloading, no re-uploading. Most tool sites are separate silos; this one isn't.

No Desktop Software Required

Everything runs in your browser — no license, no install, no waiting on IT approval.

Works Everywhere

Windows, Mac, Linux, or mobile — if it has a browser, it runs SM Datum.

Secure, Server-Side Processing

Your data is processed in memory for each request and discarded immediately afterward.

About

Built by practitioners, not just developers.

Sagarmekhla GIS Consultancy has worked geospatial problems for government, research, and industry clients directly — every tool on this platform runs the same methods, the same care around projection and unit correctness, that we apply on paid consulting work. The tools aren't a side project; they're a public extension of the same practice.

Capability Areas

Urban & Infrastructure Mapping

Parcel, utility, and infrastructure digitization and analysis for planning bodies.

Agricultural & Environmental Monitoring

Remote sensing-based vegetation, water, and land-use change analysis.

Survey & Boundary Work

Traverse computation, boundary reconciliation, and field-to-office data workflows.

Watershed & Hydrological Analysis

Catchment delineation, drainage network extraction, and terrain-based flow modeling.

Beyond the Free Tools

When your project needs more than a utility.

Sagarmekhla GIS Consultancy delivers custom spatial analysis, remote sensing, and mapping for government, research, and industry — the same standards behind every tool on this page.
