About openplacedata

openplacedata is a project by dataquarry. We help you get clean, structured place and business data — for any city or region, worldwide — straight from OpenStreetMap, without an API key or any Terms-of-Service gymnastics.

A lot of "places" or "local business" data online is locked behind paid APIs with quotas, or scraped from sites like Google Maps in ways that break their terms and fight anti-bot systems. OpenStreetMap is a cleaner starting point for many use cases: it's the largest open map of the world, it's free, and its data is redistributable with attribution.

How it works

Each guide here walks through pulling one kind of data — supermarkets, EV chargers, hotels, pharmacies, fuel stations, attractions, or general points of interest — using the dataquarry OpenStreetMap actors on the Apify Store. You give a tool a city (or a radius around a point, or a name to match), and it returns tidy rows you can export as CSV or JSON.

The data & license

All data comes from OpenStreetMap via its public Nominatim and Overpass APIs. OpenStreetMap data is © OpenStreetMap contributors, licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL) — you can use and redistribute it with attribution. The tools return public place and facility data only — no personal data. Every value comes straight from OSM; a field the community hasn't mapped is left empty, never guessed.
