TerraCore is a location intelligence API that turns a coordinate, address, or ZIP code into 200+ structured neighborhood signals in under 100ms.

Instead of building a GIS pipeline, querying Census variables, and aggregating spatial data yourself, TerraCore returns a clean JSON payload with ready-to-use neighborhood intelligence.

We handle the heavy lifting — spatial joins, block group aggregation, POI proximity calculations, and proprietary scoring — so developers can enrich applications with real location context in minutes.

Block Group Precision

Most location APIs stop at the ZIP code level. TerraCore resolves queries to US Census block groups (~1,500 people), giving far more precise neighborhood insight than city or ZIP-level averages.

ZIP queries return population-weighted rollups across all underlying block groups.
