What this does not say

Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.

  • Counts and nearest distances from the NGU GRANADA borehole registry within 2 km. Registration is mandatory for drillers so modern coverage is good, but historic wells are under-registered — zero is not proof of no well.
  • A nearby groundwater well can indicate private (non-municipal) water supply; energy wells indicate geothermal heating. This is registry proximity, not confirmation of this property's own supply.

Fields

5 of 5 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.

This is a real call against the public demo, from here. What appears below is what the API returned — not a sample.
