Places data

EDK carries open Places data for the locations people search for every day — restaurants, cafes, schools, hospitals, shops, transit stops, parks, and more. Built from OpenStreetMap and published as queryable features you can search, autocomplete, and render.

What's included

Places covers dining, retail, health, education, services, and public amenities. Every place has a stable feature ID, a canonical name, and geometry you can use across Search, Routes, Tiles, and Compute.

Category	Examples	How to query
Dining	Restaurants, cafes, bakeries	`feature: "restaurant"`
Health	Hospitals, doctors, dentists, pharmacies	`feature: "hospital"`
Education	Schools, kindergartens	`feature: "school"`
Everyday	Banks, ATMs, supermarkets, hotels, fuel stations	`feature: "supermarket"`

Search places

places.ts

import { EDK } from "@edk/sdk";

const e2 = new EDK();
const result = await e2.search({
  feature: ["restaurant", "cafe"],
  area: ["Manhattan"],
  limit: 100,
});

Browse the full list in the Features catalog or resolve IDs with e2.features.search(). Place IDs are stable across snapshots.
