OpenStreetMap is an open database edited by volunteers and companies, and its data is licensed for reuse. You type a business type and a place, Mapdig asks the public OpenStreetMap services for every matching shop, office or craftsman in that area, and you get a table with name, address, phone, website, opening hours, category and coordinates.
The trade is coverage. Google has more listings in some towns and fewer gaps in phone numbers. OpenStreetMap is strong in big cities and well mapped regions, and thinner in places where few mappers live. Run your city first on the free tier to see what the table looks like before you pay for anything.
There is nothing to install and no account to open. The free tier gives you 20 rows a search and 3 searches a day. If you need more, a pack of 1,000 rows costs $9 and does not expire.
In three steps
- Type the business and the place in one line.
- Check the row count and the sample rows.
- Download the CSV, or copy the table into Google Sheets.
