Benjamin Delsart
Founder
GIS engineer based in Brussels. Benjamin started ALIGN so that building a web map or a full GIS application no longer requires a specialist toolchain, a heavy license, or giving up ownership of your data.
LinkedIn ↗Making web GIS accessible.
Powerful mapping has long been reserved for organizations that could afford heavy licenses and the specialists to run them. We are building ALIGN to change who gets to build with geospatial data.
What we offer
ALIGN brings the whole geospatial journey into one platform: store your data, build maps, develop full GIS applications and publish them. Everything can be done by hand, and everything can be accelerated by AI. You keep the control, the AI gives you the speed.
And because your work should outlive any tool, ours included, ALIGN is aligned with open standards (OGC, OSGeo) and cloud native formats. Your data and your projects stay yours: no proprietary formats, no vendor lock-in, nothing you cannot take with you.
What we believe
Accessibility
GIS-grade tools without the GIS-grade barrier to entry. If you know your data, you can build with it.
No lock-in
Open standards and open formats. Leaving ALIGN with all of your work should always be possible, and easy.
Control
Manual-first, always. AI accelerates your work, it never replaces your hand or your judgment.
Transparency
You should know who is behind the product you rely on, and what it does with your data. This page exists for that reason.

ALIGN is built in the open by a team in Brussels. Here is who you are talking to.
