Query the GWR for firefighter incident response plans

[Markus Boos]

Hi there

I'm looking for a way to query all sub-terrain buildings (parking space) within our municipality.

I know the web form to query details on buildings if I know the address. e.g. [1]

But I'd like to query an API with

- postal code

- building class

to figure out the area.

Why? The area is an indicator on how to adapt your incident tactics if something happens (e.g. car burning).
- Is this possible with the GEO API or do I need to look for an API somewhere else?

Hints are highly welcome.

Kind regards

Markus

Hello Markus

The information that you are trying to extract (sub-terrain buildings) is contained in this layer: ch.bfs.gebaeude_wohnungs_register [1]

Unfortunately it is not possible to search/filter this layer by attributes. The data owner did not activate this feature in api3.geo.admin.ch. 

Only the queryable Layers [2] can be used and filtered with the LayerDefs [3] endpoint.

As an alternative the source data of this layer is available for free download [4].

Best regards

Marcel

Dear Marcel

Thank you very much for the clarification. 

Meanwhile, I figured out how to use the Webservice [1]

Kind regards
