Moving Polygons

Moving Polygons makes animated maps of how borders, territories and other regions change over time: empires, wars, nations, provinces, epidemics, sea ice. With this connector Claude can turn an idea such as "the Thirty Years' War" or "how Poland's borders moved" into a map in your account.

What Claude can do:

• Find published maps on any topic, place or year, and read their timeline, layers and events as text. No sign-in needed.
• Create a new map from layers with timed polygon keyframes, point markers and a style. New maps are private drafts in your account.
• List, read and download your own maps, and replace a map's content (the old version is backed up).
• Publish a map at its public link, or make it private again. Claude publishes only when you ask.

Big maps go through a one-time upload link instead of the chat, so maps of several MB work. Published maps play in any browser and can be embedded on websites, in lessons and presentations.

Pair it with the free Moving Polygons skill (https://www.movingpolygons.com/create-with-ai), which lets Claude research the history and build the borders from historical data sets.
