What it is ​

Spherium is an interactive WebGL globe and vector-map generator. Its editor converts world geography into adjustable point patterns and exports the result as SVG.

When to open it ​

  • When a map or globe should read as a graphic object in a poster, dashboard hero or editorial illustration.
  • When exploring how point shape, density and opacity change the apparent depth and legibility of a geographic form.

Most useful ​

  • Quick Views: jump to named continents to compare how the same treatment reads across different silhouettes.
  • Point patterns: switch between circles, squares, triangles, hexagons, lines and plus marks, then adjust density from roughly 1k to 8k points.
  • Scene controls: ordered or random distribution, foreground and background opacity, color and graticule controls help tune the map from clean outline to dense field.
  • Export: the editor describes SVG export for use in other design tools.

Using it with agents ​

No MCP, API, CLI, registry, llms.txt or agent guide was visible at review time. The editor is an interactive browser tool.

Watch out for ​

  • The page identifies the product as Beta 1.0. The highest point density can affect rendering performance.
  • No pricing, terms or license was linked from the editor at review time, so treat its output and code as look-only until reuse terms are verified.
  • Dense point maps can lose the shape of narrow regions; check output at its intended display size.

Reusable ideas ​

  • Keep point size and opacity tied to the intended scale of the final graphic.
  • Use low-density settings for recognisable silhouettes and reserve dense fields for close-up or large-format output.
  • Treat latitude and longitude lines as optional structure; they can compete with the primary map pattern.
