Data Sources

All location information on this site comes from open data sources. This page explains what we use, how the data is licensed and how you can help correct mistakes.

OpenStreetMap

Addresses, coordinates and, where available, phone numbers and opening hours for the bank branches, ATMs, post offices, pharmacies, stores and other locations on this site come from OpenStreetMap. OpenStreetMap is a free, editable map of the world created by volunteers, and anyone can use its data under an open license.

The ODbL allows anyone to use the data as long as they credit OpenStreetMap and share databases derived from it under the same license.

Administrative boundaries

We assign each location to a state and city using administrative boundaries from OpenStreetMap. These boundaries may not always match official definitions exactly, so a location close to a border can occasionally appear under a neighboring city. A location's mailing address may also show a different city name than the one we list it under, because postal city names in the United States don't always follow municipal boundaries.

Map tiles: OpenFreeMap and OpenMapTiles

The maps on this site use tiles from OpenFreeMap, which are built on the OpenMapTiles schema and OpenStreetMap data.

Directions

The "Get directions" link on each location page opens Google Maps, which calculates the route. Route information is provided by Google, not by us.

How often is the data updated?

We refresh our data from OpenStreetMap periodically. A change made on OpenStreetMap appears here after our next update, so a recent correction may take a while to show up on this site.

What the data doesn't include

Because the site is built on open map data, some information is not available here:

  • Real-time open or closed status, wait times or how busy a location is
  • Ratings or reviews
  • Prices, fuel prices, menus or product stock
  • Insurance networks, medication availability or other medical information

How to correct data on OpenStreetMap

If you find a mistake, you can fix it at the source:

  • Use the "Fix on OpenStreetMap" link on the location page to open the entry on openstreetmap.org.
  • Leave a map note without an account to describe the problem, so that local mappers can check it.
  • Edit the data yourself with a free OpenStreetMap account, for example to update opening hours, correct an address, remove a location that has closed or add one that is missing.

When editing OpenStreetMap, rely only on your own knowledge or on sources you are allowed to use; copying from other maps, such as Google Maps, is not permitted. Your correction will appear on this site after a future data refresh. You can also tell us about errors through our contact form.
