Amazon Quick Sight layer maps support GeoJSON points and lines
What happened
On 24 October 2026, the AWS Machine Learning Blog reported that Amazon Quick Sight layer maps now support the GeoJSON Point and LineString geometry types, allowing specific locations such as stores to be marked on a map and routes such as delivery paths and flight routes to be drawn. The report said GeoJSON files are capped at 100 MB, must be linked to a Quick Sight dataset through a shared join key, and each layer renders only one geometry type at a time. The feature is currently available within these supported scopes and limits, and no further updates have been reported.

Amazon Quick Sight layer maps now support Point and LineString geometry from the same GeoJSON workflow, so you can plot store locations and the routes between them. This post covers the dataset and GeoJSON structure layer maps require, when to choose points or lines, and techniques for viewport control, layering geometries, and dynamic GeoJSON updates.
