Global advanced POI data
Every place on Earth, described in depth. More than 300 million points of interest across 233 countries, each carried in a 36-field record with category, brand, attributes, and freshness built in.
Not just where, but what, whose, and how busy
A point of interest is any place a person can visit, from a coffee shop to a hospital to a stadium. xMap maps more than 300 million of them across 233 countries and describes each with a deep, structured record: a four-level category, the brand and chain it belongs to, its exact location and address, and attributes like rating, price level, average stay, and traffic score. Every record also carries lifecycle and freshness fields, so you know when a place opened, closed, or was last verified.
36 fields, grouped for real work
Name, brand, chain
Clean names tied to brand and chain, so you can roll thousands of locations up to the company behind them.
Four-level category
Category L0 to L3, from broad sector down to a precise type, for filtering and comparison at any grain.
Geo and address
Latitude and longitude plus full address, street, city, region, postal code, and country.
Inside and parent
Whether a place sits inside a mall or airport, its parent venue, parent type, and floor.
Status and freshness
Status, open and closed dates, last verified, and data month, so stale places never mislead you.
Signals that matter
Rating, reviews, price level, dining type, hotel stars, average stay, and a traffic score, plus phone and website.
Filter, preview, then export exactly what you need
The live catalog lets you search by name or category, filter by country, region, city, brand, chain, and whether a place has a phone or website, and preview results on a map before you export. Take a single city or a whole country, delivered as a file, by API, or through Polygon AI.
