For a developer, bridges are both a physical distance factor (avoid building close to bridges that are in poor condition or decommissioned) and a sign of how mature the area's infrastructure is. Municipalities and county authorities also use the dataset to plan bridge operation and maintenance. It is part of our Transport and communications and Infrastructure map layers.

About the datasetHow often is the bridges dataset updated?
Weekly. The frequency follows the source and is shown on the dataset in Placepoint.
Where does the data come from?
From Statens vegvesen. We collect and quality-check the data, then link it to the right property, with source and date on every field.
How do I see bridges on a property?
Look up the address in Fusion and turn on the Infrastructure map layer. The dataset is there as its own layer, and the details appear in the property panel when you click on the map.
Can I get the dataset programmatically?
Yes. The same data is available in Placepoint API and in Placepoint AI through MCP, so you can bring it into your own systems and agents.
