In this section you are going to find all the definitions for the Data Packs we offer.
In principle each pack listed below is available as a standalone item or in combination with others.
🔑 All POI packages use the
poi_id
field as a key to link the different files therefore a basic package that includes the poi_id
is always needed to act as a link between the different data points. This means that the Core Attributes
file is always included in all deliveries. The general structure of our Data Packs is as follows:
POI Data Packs Basic Packages
These packages allow you to have a basic list of POIs with potentially some enriched information attached to each individual item.
