Welcome to the DigitizeThePlanet API

Our open REST API provides comprehensive and high-quality data on protected areas and their regulations for recreational activities. Specifically designed for outdoor platforms and destination management providers, our API delivers reliable, structured information to support the planning, presentation, and implementation of sustainable outdoor experiences.

All data that are not accompanied by specific licensing information are released under CC0 by default. Geospatial datasets and image resources include specific licensing information in the payload fields.
Although attribution is not mandatory, we appreciate if you credit Digitize The Planet e.V. as the data source. If you are integrating our data into your projects, a brief notification would be greatly appreciated — helping us continuously improve the quality and development of our data.

You can explore the API documentation for both versions below and jump directly into implementation using our OpenAPI-based interactive explorer.
