API for oblique photos

Use this web service to streamline your workflows or to automatically integrate oblique photos directly into your web solutions.

With the recent release of 2021 data from SDFI, we have developed an API interface. It provides access to data from 2021 as well as previous years

If you don't want to develop your own interface, contact us for a solution.

In 2018, the Danish Agency for Data Supply and Infrastructure (formerly Efficiency) launched a nationwide set of oblique photos. Viamap’s Oblique Photo API has been developed to make access to this database easily accessible for public agencies and businesses that have a continuous and large requirement for oblique photos.

It’s a great tool if you’re working on building projects, as you can get a good overview of buildings in an area and whether a building has a canopy, for example. Many other industries also use oblique photos, such as architects and craft companies.
