Coverage proof
UK planning data coverage
without the source dump.
PlanWire monitors public planning sources across the UK and turns them into one developer API. This page shows coverage, freshness, regions, and portal types without publishing a full target list for competitors to clone.
What coverage means in practice
A useful planning dataset needs more than a council count. Buyers need to know whether records are recent, whether they include source links, whether dates are present, and whether the same API shape works across different portal systems.
PlanWire keeps the full council-level list inside authenticated API access. Publicly, we show the coverage signals that help customers judge quality without giving away a neatly packaged operational map.
Every application can include
Coverage by signal, not by shopping list
Portal types
Coverage spans the main public planning portal families used by UK authorities, including Idox, Northgate, Ocella, Civica, Uniform-style systems, and selected local implementations.
Regions
PlanWire covers England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, with priority attention on high-demand city regions and councils with frequent development activity.
Freshness
The system tracks freshness at source level so stale areas can be caught quickly. The admin health work behind this is now reflected in public trust messaging.
