Open Charge Map
Open Charge Map is the global public registry of electric vehicle charging locations, established in 2011 as a non-commercial, community-driven project. The platform maintains a crowdsourced dataset of 300,000+ charging points worldwide, combining manually entered data with imported open data from government registries and charging networks. The REST API enables developers to search and retrieve POI (Points of Interest) data on EV charging stations, including location details, equipment specifications, connection types, operator information, and user-submitted check-ins and photos. Data can be filtered by geographic coordinates, bounding box, country, operator, connection type, charging level, and operational status. The API is free to use with an API key registration and supports both read (GET) and write (POST) operations for contributing new charging location data.
Open Charge Map is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Open Charge Map is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
