As an academic can I download Geometry data?

Hi, I’m an academic currently using SafeGraph data - I was wondering if you could approve me for downloading Geometry data? Thank you.

Hey @kupf - happy to help. What brand/category/geography do you need Geometry for?

Hi @Niki_Kaz , I’m currently working on a project on urban transportation in the U.S. — Ideally, I’d like to look at most metropolitan areas. But maybe I can start with Chicago. Can I get all categories for Illinois and Indiana?

Or maybe just the metro area “Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, IL-IN-WI MSA, US”

PS: Sorry, I’m not very familiar with how SafeGraph groups their data geographically.

No worries - just started the download for IN and IL. You should see it loading currently. I’d check back in a little bit and the download should be complete.

perfect, thank you!!

No problem! Let me know if you run into any issues :slightly_smiling_face:
