What is POI data?
POI data (points of interest) is structured location data for places such as gas stations, EV chargers or supermarkets – each with a name, geographic coordinates, address and category-specific attributes.
With poidata you get this data as a ready-made, verified dataset for direct download – in the format you choose and with clearly documented fields. There's nothing to crawl, clean or geocode yourself.

Coverage
POI categories with real location counts
Each category is its own dataset with Germany-wide coverage. The numbers show the approximate count of covered locations (as of June 2026).
Use cases
What POI data is used for
The same location data, many applications – from navigation to location strategy.
Navigation & mobility
Maps, routing and driver apps need accurate, precisely located destinations with opening hours.
Geomarketing
Analyze audiences and catchment areas around relevant locations and target campaigns geographically.
Location analysis
Assess new sites, measure competitive density and find coverage gaps.
OOH advertising
Plan out-of-home advertising at high-footfall places – gas stations, supermarkets, transport hubs.

Frequently asked questions about POI data
Short answers first – details below.
Which formats does POI data come in?
You get every dataset as CSV, GeoJSON or Shapefile, and optionally via an API. All formats contain the same fields, so you can start immediately without conversion.
How current is the data?
Datasets are updated monthly. Every export carries an as-of date so you can verify how fresh it is.
Is POI data GDPR-compliant?
Yes. POI data is public location data about facilities and contains no personal information, so it is not subject to the personal-data provisions of the GDPR.
How is POI data different from OpenStreetMap?
OpenStreetMap is an open raw source with variable completeness and inconsistent attributes. poidata delivers verified, deduplicated and uniformly categorized datasets with a guaranteed field structure and a fixed update cycle.
Are there free sample datasets?
Yes. Each category has a free sample with name and coordinates so you can check structure and quality before buying.
