Coverage
Open Places API serves 73.6 million Overture-backed places across every country and territory where the current release has indexable Places data. Global describes where you can search, not equal density, freshness, or field completeness everywhere.
Coverage follows the current Overture release: if Overture has indexable Places data for a country or territory, you can run a location-scoped search there. The full inventory below lists every source label with its place count.
The inventory preserves Overture's own labels. A small number are legacy or source-specific rather than country or territory codes, so they are listed separately. Counts are indexable places in release 2026-08-19.0.

| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Coverage | Every country and territory where the current Overture release has indexable Places data. |
| Location scope | Every search includes latitude, longitude, and radius, plus either text or category, so coverage can be checked against a bounded area. |
| Japan and South Korea search | Native Japanese and Korean names are searchable directly, with a two-character minimum for contiguous CJK name queries. Published romanized aliases are indexed too. |
| Complete answers | A search either answers in full or returns an error. The API never fills in with partial results. |
coverage_not_ready | A retryable error returned when the data behind a request is temporarily unavailable. Retry after the Retry-After value. |
Global means you can run a location-scoped search wherever this Overture release has indexable Places data. It doesn't mean equal data quality, density, freshness, address completeness, or local-language aliases everywhere. And it doesn't make the product a geocoder, autocomplete service, routing engine, tile API, or unscoped worldwide-search endpoint.
