The national planning data platform for England, aggregating planning constraints and applications from Local Planning Authorities with a free API and bulk download.
Description, fields, and how we track updates on the provider’s site.
The DLUHC Planning Data Platform is a national repository managed by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) that consolidates planning constraint and application data for England.
It includes datasets such as Green Belt boundaries, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), conservation areas, Article 4 directions, Tree Preservation Orders, flood zones, and other planning constraints. The platform offers both a free API and bulk data downloads.
This data source is primarily intended for property developers, planning consultants, local authorities, and researchers requiring comprehensive and centralised planning information across English Local Planning Authorities.
Data can be accessed via a free API or bulk download directly from the Planning Data Platform website, though coverage depends on the participation of individual Local Planning Authorities.
