Catastro GPS

Compare 2 or 3 parcels side by side: location, solar potential, agricultural use and investment score (0-100 with rating). Parcels can be in different countries: ES (Spain, common regime), PT, FR, IT and DE. The Basque Country and Navarre are not supported here (use the single-parcel tools). Area, land use and municipality are only filled for Spain. No market prices. A parcel that is not found comes back with an error and the others are still compared. Costs one quota unit per parcel found (0 to 3).

Agricultural context for a rural parcel: land use and main crop from the agricultural parcel registry (SIGPAC in Spain, with slope, altitude and irrigation), vegetation index (NDVI) and a reference crop price when available. Richest in Spain; also Portugal, France, Italy and Germany. Values from official registries (land use, crop) stay in the source language.

Get the outline of a cadastral parcel as GeoJSON and/or a [lat, lng] ring, plus its centroid and area, for mapping and GIS work. Accepts references from the same 30 codes as get_parcel (every covered country except the United Kingdom, which is coordinates only).

Free and without quota: every crop or land-use code that can appear as crop_code (Spanish Catastro codes, the foral codes of Alava, Bizkaia, Gipuzkoa and Navarre, and the Austrian, Estonian and Greek catalogues) with its name in the requested language, the original label and its common use_class. Use it to translate or group crop codes; pass code to look one up.

Whether the ground under the parcel sinks or rises and how fast, measured by satellite radar (Copernicus European Ground Motion Service, EGMS L3 Ortho, Sentinel-1 InSAR, 100 m grid, 2020-2024): mean vertical velocity in mm/year over the parcel outline (negative = sinking), fastest-sinking cell, east-west velocity, class from stable to severe_subsidence, cells with data and the mean displacement of each year. status no_data with reason no_reflectors means the satellite found nothing stable to measure (fields, forest, water): there is no figure, not a zero. Carries the source, licence and the attribution to show. Every covered country inside EGMS coverage: in ES, PV, NA, PT, FR, IT and DE the reference is enough; elsewhere also pass latitude and longitude (from get_parcel). Costs 1 quota unit.

Investment score (0-100) for a parcel with a rating (excellent, good, moderate, low, very_low or no_data) and qualitative factor levels (high/medium/low/not_available), never the formula. Built from the data the API can gather for that country: solar potential (PVGIS) and agricultural use in ES, PV, NA, PT, FR, IT and DE; the market factor only in France, Italy and Germany (North Rhine-Westphalia). Accessibility and risk are not computed yet and come back as not_available, so the score is relative to the factors that were available. Other countries are not supported. One API call.

Paid API plans only (Developer, Startup, Growth, Enterprise): with a Free-plan key it answers KEY_PLAN_001 and nothing is charged. Rural land only: prices agricultural parcels in Spain (ES, PV, NA), small agricultural buildings allowed (sheds, farm stores, ponds, greenhouses), with crop_prices (EUR per hectare for each crop group of the parcel, with the number of sales behind it) and zone_prices.rural (the province farmland price per hectare). It is the price of the land; buildings are not valued (price_note). Housing, industrial or any other non-agricultural property is not supported and answers MKT_001 with nothing charged; so does rural land without a price, and any other country. One API call, charged only when a price comes back.

Parcels that touch or surround a parcel (up to 60), each with its cadastral reference and centre point. Spain from the official cadastre; other countries from our own copy where we hold one. Where neighbours cannot be listed it answers supported=false with an empty list, free. One API call.

Look up a cadastral parcel in 29 European countries (including the Basque Country and Navarre foral cadastres) by its official cadastral reference or by WGS84 coordinates. Returns the reference, location, address, municipality, area, land use and the parcel outline when the official source provides them. The country is detected from the reference format or the point when omitted. Where the parcel has crop or land-use parts it also returns their count and a crop summary (crop and share of the area); the full list with outlines is get_parcel_subparcels. United Kingdom: coordinates only. Codes: ES Spain, PV Basque Country, NA Navarre, PT Portugal, FR France, IT Italy, DE Germany, AT Austria, CH Switzerland, LI Liechtenstein, BE Belgium, NL Netherlands, LU Luxembourg, PL Poland, CZ Czechia, SK Slovakia, SI Slovenia, HR Croatia, BG Bulgaria, GR Greece, CY Cyprus, DK Denmark, SE Sweden, NO Norway, FI Finland, IS Iceland, EE Estonia, LV Latvia, LT Lithuania, IE Ireland, UK United Kingdom.

Every SIGPAC enclosure (recinto) of a Spanish parcel, the CAP land parcel identification system: SIGPAC id, land-use code (TA, OV, VI, FY, PS...) with its name in the requested language, area in hectares, irrigation coefficient, mean slope, altitude, CAP pasture eligibility and region, incidents with their official text and, with include_geometry, the GeoJSON outline. Spain, the Basque Country and Navarre only; other countries answer CNV_COVERAGE. match tells whether the SIGPAC parcel was found by the cadastral reference or under the parcel's point. Source FEGA SIGPAC: cite 'Fuente: FEGA - SIGPAC'. One API call; free when there are no enclosures. If SIGPAC does not answer it returns SIG_001: nothing is charged, retry in a few seconds.

What is on each part of a parcel: every crop or land-use subparcel with a stable crop_code, the crop name in the requested language, the original label of the source, area in m2, kind (cadastral, declaredCrop, landCover), a common use_class (arable, vineyard, olive, forest...), intensity, land type and class, source and, with include_geometry, its GeoJSON outline. Spain (Catastro, including Bizkaia, Alava, Navarre; Gipuzkoa without outlines), Austria, Germany, Czechia, the Netherlands, France, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, Finland, Belgium, Ireland, Slovenia, Estonia and Greece. One API call; free when the parcel has none. If the source does not answer it returns SUB_001: nothing is charged, retry in a few seconds. Translate codes with get_crop_catalog.

Estimate the photovoltaic potential of a parcel from PVGIS (European Commission JRC): installable kWp, yearly production, savings, payback, CO2 avoided, optimal tilt and orientation. Available for Spain (ES, PV, NA), Portugal, France, Italy and Germany.

Relief of the parcel computed over its outline from Copernicus DEM GLO-30 (30 m): mean/min/max elevation, mean and maximum slope with class and distribution, share steeper than 10 %, dominant orientation. Whether it lies in Natura 2000 (EEA) or a nationally designated protected area (CDDA), with each site's name, code, type (SPA/SCI) and the share of the parcel inside it. Climate normals at the parcel point from ERA5-Land (mean temperature, precipitation, frost and hot days, and the recent change against the baseline). Every block carries its source and licence; status is ok, no_data or unavailable. In ES, PV, NA, PT, FR, IT and DE the reference is enough; in every other covered country also pass latitude and longitude (from get_parcel). Costs 1 quota unit.

Every unit (dwelling, shop, garage, storage) of a Spanish building (finca), up to 200 per page, with stair, floor, door, use, area, participation coefficient and year. Spain only: ES (14-character finca reference, e.g. from search_address), PV (Basque Country) and NA (Navarre) with the foral reference of any unit or the finca key; the foral data carry no participation coefficient. When truncated is true, call again with cursor = next_cursor. Costs one quota unit per unit served (minimum 1 per page), so a 120-dwelling building costs 120 units; repeat pages within the plan's per-finca cap (Startup/Growth contracts) are free.

Paid API plans only: with a Free-plan key it answers KEY_PLAN_001 and nothing is charged. Snapshots of a parcel as the official cadastre reported it over time: area and land use, at most one snapshot every 30 days. History starts the first time anyone looks the parcel up through CatastroGPS (get_parcel) and grows from there, so a parcel never queried before returns an empty list. The official cadastral value is not recorded yet (always null). change_pct is the area change between the oldest and newest snapshot. Recorded for ES, PV, NA, PT, FR, IT, DE and AT. One API call.

Municipalities of one Spanish province, with the cadastre code and the INE code. Spain only (common territory). Take the province name from list_provinces. One API call.

Provinces of the Spanish cadastre, with the names that list_municipalities and list_streets expect as region. Spain only (common territory: the Basque Country and Navarre have their own cadastres and are not listed). One API call.

Streets of one Spanish municipality as the cadastre writes them (type code such as CL or AV, name and full name), optionally filtered by part of the name. Spain only (common territory). Take region from list_provinces and municipality from list_municipalities. One API call.

Free and without quota: tell what a piece of text is before looking it up. Classifies it as a cadastral reference, a coordinate pair or a place name, for each country it could belong to, with confidence (0-1), the normalised form and whether that country is supported. ambiguous=true means bare digits that fit several countries: pick one and pass it as country to get_parcel. Use it when get_parcel answers CNV_AMBIGUOUS, or to find the country of an unknown reference.

Turn a postal address typed as free text into cadastral parcels, ranked by confidence (0 to 1; 0.75 or more means the house number and the municipality match). Spain (default, CartoCiudad; Basque Country and Navarre entrances come back with country ES and their foral reference) and 26 more countries: FR, IT, DE (not Bavaria), AT, NL, BE, PL, CH, CZ, DK, NO, FI, EE, LV, LT, SI, SK, BG, GR, CY, LU, LI, IS, IE, UK (Scotland only) and PT (not Lisbon, Porto or Coimbra). Sweden and Croatia answer CNV_COVERAGE. Include the street number and the municipality or postcode, e.g. 'Calle Gran Via 31, Madrid' or '8 boulevard du Port, Amiens'. In Spain the 14-character reference is the building (finca): call get_units for its dwellings or get_parcel for the outline. Costs 1 quota unit when it returns candidates; misses are free.
