Color countries by group
Build a country-coloring config without touching code.
- Add groups (e.g. 'Markets', 'Considering')
- Pick a color per group
- Toggle countries — each country belongs to one group
Standard ISO country codes
We use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes (US, GB, DE, etc.).
- Two-letter codes are the international standard
- Works in MapsMaker, Mapbox, Google Maps, etc.
- If you need more countries than the picker shows, request a feature
What to do with the JSON
This tool generates config; the editor renders the map.
- Download the JSON for backup
- Load it into the MapsMaker editor for full styling
- Use it as a config for your own choropleth implementation
Frequently asked questions
Why not click-to-color directly?
Country boundaries are heavy data; v1 keeps it lightweight as a config generator. Live editor coming.
How many countries are in the picker?
25 common ones for v1. More can be added — request via support.
Can I have a country in multiple groups?
No — each country belongs to one group per map (standard choropleth).
What format is the export?
JSON with groups, colors, and country codes.
Is this tool free?
Yes — no signup required.
Will the config render with country names?
Standard mapping tools (including MapsMaker) join codes to country names automatically.
