Spain coverage FAQ.

Does Open Places API cover Spain?

Yes. 2,576,045 places in Spain are searchable today. Density, freshness, and field completeness vary by location.

Where does the Spain place data come from?

From the Overture Maps Foundation Places dataset: open data backed by Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, and TomTom. Open Places API follows Overture's monthly release cycle.

Can I add my own places in Spain?

Yes. Account-owned layers let you add private records, correct base data, and suppress places, merged into every search your API keys make, on top of or instead of the Overture base.

What does it cost?

Packs are prepaid with hard caps: free for 2,500 searches once, $10 for 5,000, $100 for 125,000, $250 for 400,000. When you hit the cap the API returns a 402 and stops. It never bills an overage.

Spotlights are editorial deep dives, not the edge of coverage. The API is global wherever the current Overture release has Places data; the coverage page has the full inventory.
