Creating world map that includes countries east of Fiji

I am creating interactive maps for an intergovernmental organisation and it’s imperative that I include small island states such as Tonga, Samoa and Kiribati.

The map options included in Everviz don’t go further east than Fiji, and so exclude these islands. I’ve looked into uploading a JSON file but even if I were to be able to create one that includes Samoa etc. (which seems difficult without GIS software) it seems likely to breach the upload limit of 2MB.

Has anyone found a successful workaround to this problem? Thanks!

Hi and welcome to our forum

Could our new location maps be useful for your use case? Happy to give you a demo

Here’s a screenshot from the exotic Islands you refer to

Alternatively, we strongly recommend using Mapshaper.org to simplify your GeoJSON file before uploading it to everviz. This helps ensure efficient map loading on your readers’ devices, which is the purpose of the 2MB file size limitation.

Here is a helpful video demonstrating the Mapshaper simplification process.

Hope this helps

Best regards,
Havard
