✏️ Input

Keywords

This is where you can input search terms you would like to scrape such as: restaurants, gas station, gyms...

Max Results per Scrape

Control the number of results you capture per section of the area you are scraping. For a denser location consider higher values like 80, 100 or 120, for sparse areas use lower numbers like 20, 40, or 60.

Any value that isn't 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 will be rounded up to the next. For example, 21 will be rounded up to 40.

Locations

Enter in all the cities you would like to scrape in the format City, Country or City, State/Province, Country. You can input multiple cities at once but we recommend keeping them all within the same country for each actor run.

Note: The city boundary is automatically defined by Nominatim so agglomeration areas aren't explicitly included but results may still contain locations/businesses from neighboring areas.
