Property Locations

File Content and Purpose

This file contains a collection of data that relates to the property location. Data includes address, phone, latitude/longitude, region, distance from city center and from nearest major airport.

File Format

Inside the .zip file you will find 6 compressed .jsonl files. Each .jsonl file will contain a collection of separate, valid JSON objects, one per line. The break between files will always fall between JSON objects, so you can assume all JSON files are complete.

The grouping of the properties into the files is random, so you will need to parse all 6 files to find all properties of a given type or in a given location, etc.

File Update Schedule

This file is currently scheduled to be updated every Tuesday, with a new version published at 2pm Pacific time each week.

Downloading the full content file will require an Expedia API key with permissions added for static data download.

Items to Note:

  • Obfuscation — Note that the address, phone number, and lat/long of the property may be obfuscated at the request of the homeowner. In this event, exact location data and contact information will only be given after booking.
  • Region IDs — The included hierarchy of Expedia Region IDs make it easy for you to create API queries for other properties within the same areas using the XAP Lodging or Packages Search APIs.
  • Airport — We don't have complete airport data at this time, but we are working to get at least one listing for each property in future.
  • Distance from City Center — Like airport data, we don't have complete data at this time, but we are working to get at least one listing for each property in future.
