EV charging, and what happens north of sixty

Charging stations were already a Places category, so this is a measurement rather than a feature. We ran a QA sample across major cities, the Trans-Canada and the North: Yellowknife and Iqaluit return nothing.

  • category=ev charger on /places/nearby. No separate EV API, which is what the plan asked for and what already existed
  • Measured 2026-09-17 within 25 km of a downtown anchor: major cities hit the result cap, Banff 16, Swift Current 3, Kenora 2, Whitehorse 2, Yellowknife 0, Iqaluit 0
  • No network, connector type, power rating, port count, access or status: the corpus has no columns for them, so they are absent rather than null

AvailabilityAvailability was not re-checked against production for this record. The 2026-09-17 sample used category=ev charger on /places/nearby, with no connector, power, or status fields. Yellowknife and Iqaluit returned nothing.
