SafeGraph’s Geometry data provides POI footprints and spatial hierarchy metadata for millions of places.
Data Overview
SafeGraph’s Geometry data provides POI footprints and spatial hierarchy metadata for over millions of places. They map the size and area of physical locations for the POIs in their datasets using polygons. This includes data for understanding location boundaries and relationships. Available for POIs globally. Covers locations for major retail chains, local businesses, convenience stores, hotels, airports, schools, hospitals & more.
Additional Information
All SafeGraph POI-based datasets utilize Placekey as the primary key and are formatted as delimited CSVs. SafeGraph updates the Places dataset every month with the past month’s openings and closings and maintains a persistent Placekey across releases. Our detailed Geometry Schema(1) is available online. Additionally please refer to Places Data Manual(2) for more detailed field definitions and methodologies. Our Places Summary Statistics(3) is updated with every monthly release to reflect data coverage.
