umfeld-at — context layers around a place in Austria alpha
One coordinate in, everything around it out: municipality, land-price estimate, Natura 2000 /
national parks, OpenStreetMap proximity, official geographic names, legal references — and the declared
land-use statistics of the cell the point falls in. Austria-wide. JSON, CORS, no key.
Cadastre stays client-side. Parcels, footprints and land use come straight from the official
BEV vector tile cadastre (VTC, CC BY 4.0) — vtcseamless
(open source, MIT) stitches the tiles into seamless parcel geometries in your client. You send us a point plus
the parcel features you already hold and get the context layers around it back.

NE cells — declared land-use statistics per H3 cell
The one layer that is about the land itself, published as statistics per hexagon instead of objects: for every H3 res-12 cell (~307 m²) the declared land-use split in nine groups (buildings, building land, arable, grassland, forest, water, traffic, alpine, other), structure cover and count, surveyed-boundary share, unit count, boundary metres per hectare and orientation; per res-10 cell (~1.5 ha) a K record with unit-size percentiles and register counts. Tokenless, keyed by H3 cell id, lon/lat or bbox; 30-byte rows, zstd chunks, immutable ETags. The observed layer — LiDAR heights, tree apices, structures, NDVI, forest loss, terrain for the same cells — is served by the sibling srtm-lidar-at (/api/v1/cells?bbox=, /api/v1/cells/{h3}, /api/v1/kg/{code}/cells; CC BY 4.0, no key). Same H3 ids, so declared and observed zip together client-side on cell_id.

Declared layer digested by peers — land area whose declared (survey) cells a peer re-digested from the BEV tiles, per day (res-10 chunks, ~1.5 ha each). Each bar is split by how often that land had been digested up to then — first digest on top, 2nd, 3rd–4th, 5th–9th, 10th+ pass below; only land seen before can show change, and the deeper the pass, the longer its history. The observed layer (satellite & LiDAR, srtm-lidar-at) is a separate measurement: it is not in the bars, each day's card lists it on its own line.
