Draw the layers
browsers can't.
A state's land parcels. Every address point. A national road network. Some layers are simply too dense to send to a browser. Pythia draws them on the server in your exact symbology, then hands over to live vectors as you zoom in. Everything, instantly, at every scale.
Images when you're zoomed out. Vectors when you're zoomed in.
Drag the zoom. Below the switch-over, the layer arrives as images drawn by Pythia. Above it, Fulcrum's live vectors take over. Identify works the whole way.
Pick any Fulcrum layer and choose the zoom where images hand over to vectors.
The first view is drawn on the server from your layer's own style and filter.
Each image is kept and reused, so everyone after the first viewer gets it straight away.
All the detail, none of the drag
Your symbology, faithfully
Graduated colours, hatch fills, dashed lines, ArcGIS® Pro marker and pattern symbols brought across by Janus, and your filters. The images match the vectors where they meet.
Nothing extra to publish
Every Fulcrum layer is already a Pythia layer. Turn it on, pick the zoom, done.
Everything still works
Identify, select, the attribute table and labels work at every zoom. Labels are placed live, so they never collide or get cut off at tile edges.
Drawn once, served instantly
Images are kept and reused. Change the style or update the data and a fresh set is drawn automatically, so you're never looking at a stale map.
Sleeps when idle
Pythia scales to zero when nobody needs anything new drawn. Most map views are served without waking it at all.
Same security as Fulcrum
Every image is protected by the same signed, per-dataset access as the layer it was drawn from.
Pythia is licensed as an add-on to Strabo and Fulcrum. Ask us about pricing.
