Postal codes database is a spatial database containing the range of postal codes in Poland together with the location of all postal outlets and institutions with individual postal codes.

Applications

If you have postal codes in your database and would like to conduct spatial marketing analysis based on this information, build trade territories and analyze them in Business Intelligence software, then the postal codes database is for you.

With our data, you can visualize different types of information (e.g., for reporting purposes) on a map in relation to zip codes. In addition, we can enrich your database with demographic or economic data aggregated to the postal code level, allowing you to conduct Location Intelligence analysis at the highest level.

    The map of postal codes is based on data from the Polish Post Office and from registers kept by the Central Statistical Office and the Central Office of Geodesy and Cartography.

    Data is provided in any GIS format such as Shapefile, KML, GeoJSON, or other. All data are updated quarterly.

    To meet the needs of our customers, we can enrich the data on postal codes with the following information – number of buildings, number of apartments, number of functioning businesses, number of companies, population by sex and five-year age groups.
