This page says what you may do with the data Spezia gives you: the data center projects in the app, the spreadsheet downloads, the API and the free sample. It is part of our Terms of Service. If the two ever disagree about data, this page wins. A signed agreement with Inova Platforms, Inc. wins over both.
In short
- Use the data inside your own business, as much as your plan allows.
- Share what you learn from it, with credit to Spezia.
- Do not sell, give away or republish the dataset itself.
- The public records behind it stay public. What we license is our work on top of them.
What you may do
- Use it at work. Search it, filter it, load it into your CRM, spreadsheet, warehouse or models, and combine it with your own data, for your organization's own decisions: sales, bids, research, planning, lending and investing.
- Share findings. Put charts, counts, summaries and conclusions drawn from the data in reports, decks, articles and posts, including for your clients.
- Share small extracts. A short list of projects or companies in a client deliverable or a pitch is fine, as long as it is a small part of the data and not a copy of it.
- Keep your work. What you made while on a plan (reports, models, notes, records in your CRM) is yours to keep after the plan ends.
What you may not do
- Sell, license, give away or publish the raw dataset or a large part of it, in any format, whether as a file, a feed or a website.
- Use it to build a data product or service that competes with Spezia.
- Share your API key or account, or let people outside your organization pull the data through your systems.
- Copy the data by scraping the site or the app. Use the downloads and the API, within your plan's limits.
- Remove the credit or the source links in a way that makes our work look like someone else's.
When a plan ends, stop pulling new data and delete bulk copies of the raw data within 30 days. If you need to resell or redistribute the data, or to use it in a product of your own, ask us about a redistribution license: contact us.
How to credit us
"Source: Spezia" with a link to our site is enough for a chart or a post. Every API answer carries this line, which you may copy as is:
Data from Spezia, researched from public records and reports; each fact links to its source. FAA and EPA records are U.S. government works. Use under the Spezia data license.
The public records behind the data
- FAA and EPA records. Crane and tall structure filings from the Federal Aviation Administration and air and stormwater permits from the Environmental Protection Agency are works of the U.S. government and in the public domain. You may use those records as published by the agencies with no limit from us. This license covers our matching of them to projects, our summaries and our compilation.
- News, filings and company pages. Each fact keeps a short quote and a link to the page it came from. The pages and their full text belong to their publishers. Follow the link to read them, and follow the publisher's terms if you reuse their text.
- Public videos. Videos of sites belong to the people who made them. We link to them and report our own reading of what they show.
- Open map data. Some sites were found with map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database License. We use those locations only to aim satellite imagery, and we do not hand out their coordinates or map names.
Honest limits
- The data is research, not advice. It can be incomplete, out of date or wrong. Check what matters with the source before you act on it.
- Sizes, values and dates are what the sources state. Phases, bottlenecks and signs marked "likely" are our judgment, and say so.
- Projects are researched again every week, so a copy you keep will drift from the live data.
- The data is provided as is, without warranties, as set out in the Terms of Service. If you find an error, tell us at contact@inovaplatforms.com and we will look at it.
