Smartphone apps and navigation, tracking and tour planning form the basis for cyclists, hikers, skiers and other outdoor enthusiasts to plan tours, choose routes and make decisions on the move.
Good data is essential for correct and safe routing and therefore for a high-quality product. The basis for a nature conservation-compliant and conflict-free offer can only be created using data on what is allowed and forbidden and knowledge about nature and protected areas.
Digitize the Planet offers open data and interfaces to rules, protection purposes and other information on nature. These are designed for easy integration into the route planning of tour portals and platforms. The integration actively supports digital activity management and the conservation of our natural environment.
We support all platforms in the use of our data.
Good route selection, correct routing and a user-friendly display of sensitive areas, protected areas and restricted zones are basic prerequisites for correct behaviour and conflict-free planning and navigation.
These functions and visualisations require data of a particular quality that can be trusted. Closures and restrictive rules are sensitive interventions in our leisure activities, so they should be correct, verified and come from the right sources.
With the DtP data set, these criteria for a freely usable data set have been created for the first time.
Entered by the relevant authorities and verifiable at any time, this data forms the basis for all digitally planned outdoor activities.
Our data is open data and may be used, redistributed and reused by all interest groups free of charge for any purpose.
The data is available for integration via our API interface. We are happy to support you with the connection and accompany the process.
Other methods of integration and data exchange can also be considered. Our top priority is the broad display of our data and we are open to new ways of defining this.
For an easy and standardised presentation, we offer icons suitable for all rules and also provide complete design proposals.
Sustainability and nature conservation are increasingly important issues for users and customers.
Especially in outdoor sports, athletes want to protect their recreational areas in nature and not cause any negative impacts.
To do this, they need the right tools and information. The first step here is for platform and map providers to take responsibility and provide users with this information.
The information is available through our platform and can be integrated into the respective planning tool.
Integrate our data into your platform.
