  • Read What Tamaat Is

Tamaat uses a left-rail workspace model. Each major icon opens a distinct pane with a clear operational role. Users move between these panes depending on whether they are managing the environment, working on GIS data, designing ETL flows, publishing APIs, running coverage studies, or configuring shared behavior.

Workspace

Workspace is the control center and management surface for the user's Tamaat environment. It gives high-level visibility into projects, datasets, files, web maps, ETL workflows, managed APIs, storage, subscription, and organization controls.
