The presentation will provide the architecture and tricks to make available a low cost simple mapping capability for a rich geospatial web dashboard that can be used to track COVID-19. The dashboard is based on the open source MapStore Framework https://github.com/geosolutions-it/MapStore2. It interacts with an external API, following a distributed web architecture principle, and it has been deployed in an Amazon S3 bucket (https://www.covidtrackingmap.com/).
