# User guides

Kepler.gl is designed for geospatial data analysis. It allows technical and non-technical audiences to visualize trends in a city or region. With Kepler.gl, you can…

Visualize a large amount of location data in your browser.
Playback geo-temporal trends over time.
Explore, filter, and deeply engage with location data to gain insight

See the sample maps in the demo app for more examples.
