One API for all your geospatial data
QuickCategory aggregates dozens of geospatial datasets behind a single, consistent REST API. Stop wrangling different schemas, auth systems, and query interfaces — just query.
# Query any dataset with one interface curl https://api.quickcategory.com/v1/query \ -H "Authorization: Bearer <your-key>" \ -d '{ "dataset": "<dataset-slug>", "filter": { "intersects": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [-1.548, 53.801] } } }' # → GeoJSON, every time, regardless of dataset
From API key to spatial query in minutes
No per-dataset integration work. No schema translation. Just one key and one endpoint.
Request access
Get in touch to join the closed alpha. We'll set you up with an account and generate an API key.
Browse the catalogue
Explore available datasets — administrative boundaries, environmental data, infrastructure layers, and more.
Query with one interface
Use the same endpoint, same filter syntax, and the same GeoJSON response shape across every dataset in the catalogue.
Built for developers who work with geodata
Everything you need to integrate spatial data into your application — none of the boilerplate.
Uniform Interface
One base URL, one auth token, one query schema. Every dataset in the catalogue speaks the same API regardless of its upstream source.
Rich Spatial Filters
Filter by point intersection, bounding box, radius, or arbitrary geometry. Combine with attribute filters — strings, numbers, dates, enums.
Vector Tile Endpoints
Every dataset exposes an MVT tile endpoint. Drop it straight into MapLibre, Mapbox, or any other tile-consuming client with zero preprocessing.
UK-Focused Dataset Catalogue
We're starting with UK datasets across categories including administrative boundaries, environment, infrastructure, and land use. Data from other regions is available on request — get in touch if you need coverage elsewhere.
API Key Auth
Simple bearer token auth. Create multiple keys per account, revoke them individually, and track usage per key in your dashboard.
OpenAPI Spec
Machine-readable OpenAPI specification included. Generate client code in your language of choice, or explore the API interactively in the docs.
We're heads-down building
QuickCategory is currently in closed alpha while we develop and refine the system. Access is invite-only as we work through the dataset catalogue, sharpen the API, and scale the infrastructure.
If you have a use case you'd like to discuss, or want to be considered for early access, we'd love to hear from you.
