POI metadata

Please refer to the following page for the POI metadata schema.

Metadata for Tags

Customers that request a metadata file for feeds that contain tags (i.e. the feed’s entity list is defined using tags) will receive a tags_entities_mapping.csv file to supplement your analysis.

The tag entities mapping file helps to bridge the relationship between tags and the entities they contain, offering a clear data structure that enhances the traceability and usability of the delivered tag-based data.
The metadata file includes the following schema:

ColumnDescriptionTypeExample
tag_idThe identifier of the tag.string'636371ee42a729232a6b755e'
tag_nameThe name of the tag.string'My Tag'
entity_idThe identifier of the entity associated with the tag.string'5965fca0173f564b883c222e'
entity_typeThe type of entity (i.e. venue, complex, chain or billboard)
associated with the tag.
string'venue'

This file helps you easily correlate feed entities with the originating tags, enabling streamlined data validation, filtering, and analysis.
