Building a GIS agent with Felt and Databricks
Connect, analyze, and visualize your data with a single prompt. Watch us build the agent live, with Databricks.
Geospatial workflows can be complex. Querying your data and analyzing it on an interactive map can take hours of work and require lots of GIS expertise.
What if anyone on your team could just ask, and an agent handled the rest: connecting your data, analyzing it, and turning it into a map? In this session, Felt and Databricks build that agent live, starting with your data in Databricks and finishing with a production map app in Felt.
We’ll show:
- How Lakebase (Postgres + PostGIS on a serverless lakehouse) works as a geospatial engine
- How MCP tools wire up a live connection between Lakebase and Felt
- How Agent Bricks orchestrates the whole workflow from a single request
What started as an internal tool for Felt’s Solution Engineers is now something any team working with spatial data can use.
