Ghana’s road data, in your app
We’re opening the hotspots and speed limits behind Hotspot to developers building navigation, fleet and delivery apps. Join the waitlist and we’ll reach out when the API opens.
- Covers Ghana’s roads, kept current by drivers and checked by our moderators.
- Each app gets its own key.
- Speed limits include OpenStreetMap data, so your app credits OpenStreetMap.
At launch
What you’ll be able to call
Hotspots
GET /hotspotsEvery confirmed speed camera, police check, crash and closure in Ghana, with its speed limit and alert zone. GeoJSON, ready for any map.
What changed
GET /hotspots/changesOnly the hotspots added, moved or cleared since your last check, so you stay current without downloading everything again.
Speed limits
GET /speed-limits/{col}/{row}The limit on every road in one square of the map, about 5.5 km a side. Load the squares around your drivers as they move.
Hotspot kinds
GET /hotspot-typesEach kind of hotspot with its name, colour and icon, so your map can show them the way ours does.
Reports
POST /reportsLet your drivers report what they see. A person checks each report before it reaches the map.
