Reading about @wevoltau gaining $2m investment (like @plugshare but you can require a fee for sharing your charger). Great to see another EV platform emerging from Perth. I look after the openchargemap.org project, which is the largest EV Open Data set in the world.

In the last 30 days our database API served 3.2 million queries to 143K people. OCM is free advertising for charging networks. Promote your EV charging network using Open Charge Map by sharing data with us: openchargemap.org/site/about…

Of the 143K visitors per month to our API, many of those are in fact other services which go on to share our data with hundreds of thousands more people. There is no downside to sharing your charging network location data with us, except more customers.

A new update to 0.8.0 is coming to our beta channel with initial support for @open_charge_map as an alternative data source - especially useful for users outside Europe where GoingElectric.de only has few chargers. Register for the Beta at play.google.com/apps/testing…

Very important conversation. Networks need to take responsibility for the appropriate siting of equipment based on how it will be used.
I've been pondering why I felt so stressed about struggling to find an #EV charger last night... I had 30 miles left and this morning I was able to solve the problem pretty quickly. Then it hit me. It was dark, past 10pm, I was alone in a car park and I was scared. 1/4

Stuck on how to add locations to OCM? Open the app or go to map.openchargemap.io and either choose Add Location from the menu or tap the blue map marker.

You can now grab a snapshot of our whole database from GitHub: github.com/openchargemap/ocm… - this is automatically updated twice a day and the most efficient way to fetch all data (using 'git pull' every time you want to refresh the data).

Do you operate a charging network? We're looking for volunteers to help us define requirements for a new network planning tool (crowd-source proposed sites, site suitability checklists, planning stages, auto-publish to OCM when live). Get in touch!
