NAP - NVDB transportportal

Norway’s national road database contains all roads in Norway. Through our API you have live access to the contents of the road network and more than 350 feature types attached to the road network. All data are freely available through Norwegian Licence for Open Government Data (NLOD).

At these pages we translate a subset of the NVDB api documentation (in Norwegian) to English. For simple use cases we hope this will be sufficient.
