A real answer from the API, unedited apart from the billing fields.

What it returns

One call returns up to 20 sheets. note always reminds that a sheet covers a whole village or ward.

Inputs

The JSON body of the POST is the arguments. Send area, or body_type on its own to list every sheet of that class.

Code

Set LANDLENS_KEY to your key. In an AI app, connect https://verified.realestate/mcp once and ask in plain words instead. In Postman, download this API's collection, import it (File, Import) and set apiKey.

curl -X POST https://verified.realestate/api/v1/tools/planning_map \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LANDLENS_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"area":"Ambattur"}'

import os, requests

r = requests.post(
    "https://verified.realestate/api/v1/tools/planning_map",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LANDLENS_KEY']}"},
    json={
        "area": "Ambattur"
    },
    timeout=20,
)
body = r.json()
print(body["status"], body["credits_charged"], body["data"])

const res = await fetch("https://verified.realestate/api/v1/tools/planning_map", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LANDLENS_KEY}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "area": "Ambattur"
  }),
});
const body = await res.json();
console.log(body.status, body.credits_charged, body.data);

Show me the CMDA master plan map for Ambattur.

Responses

Every answer has the same envelope. What status can say for this call:

Where the data comes from

Who uses it

Limits and good practice

• The Chennai Metropolitan Area only. Outside it the plan is a DTCP master plan, which this index does not hold.
• Sheets are named after the revenue village or ward. A colony or layout name will not match; use the village or neighbourhood.
• A sheet shows the zoning of a whole village or ward. For the zone at one plot, call zone_check with cmda_landuse or master_plan.
• A few sheets have no direct PDF link; detail_url then opens the local body's listing page.
