The New Landgrid Tileserver, API limits and Much More!
By Sahana Murthy on July 9, 2020 · Announcements
Hope you all had a nice, long 4th of July weekend.
We are back with some updates for you on this hot summer day!
1. Launching the Landgrid Tileserver: Make beautiful maps with our raster & vector tiles.
Use our raster (PNG) and vector (MVT) tiles to show parcel boundaries on your Leaflet, Mapbox, or ESRI baselayer. Our tiles come with parcel polygons and the identifiers you need to look up additional details with our search API.
This is the same service we use across our platform and mobile apps, ready for use at scale in your tools. We keep it up-to-date with the latest parcel updates so your clients always see the freshest data.
If you are interested in using our Tileserver, please email us at parcels@landgrid.com and we can set you up in no time.
You can learn about the pricing tiers and limits for our tileserver here -
https://landgrid.com/tiles
We will soon make this a self-serve subscription so you pick & choose the tier you want and sign up for it and get instant access to our tiles.
2. API usage limits:
We are introducing new limits on the API tiers, based more on the output than number of requests. We didn’t want to limit API calls or requests for our customers. However, we do have generous output limits now in place for the three API tiers as shown below.

3. Updated Parcels page:
We recently gave our parcel bulk data page a little spruce up. It was due for an update. You know why??? Because our parcel data has gotten bigger, better, and robust in the past year as you may have noticed from our monthly data stats and updates. :)

We want to showcase more of our customers on this page. Let us know if you are interested in telling your Landgrid data story by emailing us at team@landgrid.com.
We want to celebrate your work , product & project.
4. Podcasts and webcasts:
