Frequently asked questions

Does GEOPULSE cost anything?

No. GEOPULSE is free and open source (MIT licence). There is no paid tier and no advertising.

Do students need an account?

No. There is no sign-up and there are no accounts. The site sets no cookies; settings such as the language stay in the device’s own browser.
