Developer API

Simple JSON endpoints. No key for basic use.

All endpoints return JSON with CORS enabled (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) — call them straight from the browser. Basic use is free with a link back to the source (map.megainet.art).

Limits & pricing

The free tier is about 60 requests per minute per IP. Need more, or no attribution? See pricing.

Authentication & keys

Basic endpoints work without a key — the limit is then counted per IP. A Free-tier key (120 req/min) is issued in one click on the key page, no sign-up. Send it as the ?key=ak_… parameter or the X-API-Key header. Every response carries X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Tier; over the limit the API returns 429 with Retry-After.

Reference service. Does not replace official air-raid sirens — take shelter when the siren sounds.
