Thanks, this is a great resource. I am in the wait, long one, for a pro finished van.
My retirement and the delivery lineup nicely next summer.

Very cool. The concentration in Europe vs USA is interesting. There just aren't that many accessible open areas in Europe--at least not relative to the USA. We have a relatively small population and a huge amount of land. That broad swath of emptiness from a few hundred miles east of the west coat to the midwest has a sprinkling of sites because it's fundamentally empty. You can more or less camp anywhere. Certainly someone owns it, but generally it's the BLM. 47 percent of land in the West is BLM land. That's a hard number to digest.

Looks like a very Europe oriented map. If you look at its listing for New Zealand and Australia, you'll see very few sites. Compare that to https://www.campermate.co.nz/map/index which is the app we used when we vacationed in New Zealand with a rented camper van. I'd imaging there is something similar for the US.

It seems to be a new site that runs on user fed info. When I zoomed in on this corner of france and spain the results were sporadic to none.

The idea seems fantastic.

My go to clutch spot is the local cemetery, any town.
Quite at night, always spots free and very often a water spigit. Up early and off to the beach.
