Portugal 🇵🇹

Parcels in Portugal come from the DGT SNIC (Sistema Nacional de Informação Cadastral, Direção-Geral do Território). Geometry is returned in EPSG:4326.

Partial coverage

Portugal's cadastre is incomplete. SNIC covers mostly the rural centre and south of the mainland — major cities (Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra) and the north return no parcel, and a lookup there raises PlotNotFoundError.

from plot_finder import Plot

plot = Plot(country="PT", plot_id="AAA000825807")

Querying

By id (NIC)By coordinatesBy address

The plot_id is the NIC (Número de Identificação de Prédio), e.g. AAA000825807.

Plot(country="PT", plot_id="AAA000825807")

Coordinates are longitude, latitude (EPSG:4326). The parcel containing the point is selected.

Plot(country="PT", x=-7.7079, y=40.4210)   # (lon, lat)

The address is geocoded with OpenStreetMap Nominatim (only resolves inside the cadastred area).
