Access class note

Public web, file, catalog, or documented endpoint access with no paid gate implied in the source profile.

Used in layers

page reference only

Useful fields

layer name, geometry type, CRS/projection, bounding box, feature attributes, resolution/scale, update date

Reliability rating

Medium-high for discovery and context; operational reliability depends on endpoint stability.

Runtime truth

Runtime role

Catalog only

Production ready

Not yet

Entity scope

No runtime entity scope yet.

Observation scope

No live observation ingestion yet.

Decision scope

Not wired into active decisions yet.

Runtime note

Profiled in the atlas and public pages, but not yet connected to live graph computation.

How this helps travel recommendations

Improves map context, nearby pivots, route geography, protected-area context, coast exposure, and destination coverage.

Developer reference

Best endpoint

Use OGC services, GeoJSON, SHP, STAC, PBF, or documented feature layers; record CRS, geometry type, and update date.

Recommended refresh

Refresh weekly or when the catalog metadata changes; many agency catalogs update irregularly.

Travel scoring role

Improves map context, nearby pivots, route geography, protected-area context, coast exposure, and destination coverage.

Comparable / backup source

OpenStreetMap, Geofabrik, GISTDA, HDX, WorldPop, Protected Planet, Open Development Thailand, and official boundary layers.

Example request

curl -L "https://www.protectedplanet.net/"

Failure modes

  • Large layers can be slow or tiled.
  • CRS/projection mismatches can break maps.
  • Feature names and boundaries can vary across sources.
  • Batch files can change schema, naming, encoding, or publication cadence.
  • Geospatial layers can be large, tiled, or projection-specific.

Last checked and source confidence

Source confidence: Treat this profile as strongest for the exact role named above. It is weaker when the source is stretched into live availability, legal proof, or traveler-fit decisions it does not directly prove.
