The crew at Maptiks tells us that Geospatial and GIS Web Developers Can Now Put Their Maps To Work With Analytics. After 6 months of development, Maptiks (http://maptiks.com) is graduating from beta and is officially launching to the public. Maptiks is like Google Analytics for your web map and currently integrates with Google Maps API, OpenLayers3 and LeafletJS. Soon it will also support Mapbox.js, ESRI javaScript API, CartoDB.js, and Bing Maps.

From the company… Web Map Developers are blind when it comes to user interaction on their maps. Most websites use analytics products like Google Analytics, or Mixpanel to track web activity, but surprisingly, user interaction tracking on a map just doesn’t exist. For example, companies like Priceline may not see how many hotels are clicked on, or other cities that you panned through in their map view before you landed on a detailed hotel page. They are essentially blind to how a user interacts with their map.
