West Africa's cities are growing faster than any mapping technology can track. MapAfrique solves this with a human-powered, continuously updated location database built for how people actually navigate.
Every location passes through six steps before it reaches the API. No shortcuts, no satellite-only inference.
Every entry below was physically visited by a MapAfrique Field Ambassador, photographed at the entrance, and GPS-confirmed before going live.
Verified ground truth, in the hands of the people who need it — from field teams to everyday users.
Thousands of verified businesses, clinics, schools and services — searchable, navigable by landmark, and confirmed by a real person on the ground. This is what location data looks like when it's built for the place it serves.

We hold every record to a standard you can audit. Here's how the database actually performs.
Liberia is proof. The same ambassador model scales to every market the maps forgot.
Sample the data at no cost. Move to metered API or a full enterprise feed when it's powering production.
"We didn't start with software. We started with people who know their neighborhoods — and gave them the tools to put their world on the map. Every point you query was walked to."
