POI Data for Retail Site Research
Published by DevIntel · Content reviewed 2026-10-22. Dataset snapshot dates are stated separately.
Use place records to build a geographic shortlist, then validate individual sites using local evidence. POI counts alone do not measure customer demand, revenue or market share.
Workflow
- Select the country or US state and inspect address/category fill rates.
- Download a public sample and identify the source vocabulary used in entity_type.
- Load the CSV, retain records with usable coordinates and map candidate places.
- Compare candidate areas using a consistent definition and check missingness.
- Verify occupancy, access and current operating status independently before a site decision.
Building geometry may represent a nearby footprint. Foot traffic and revenue are not part of the current POI product. No customer outcomes or case-study results are asserted.
