2026 GIS Map Data

Black Rock City is planned and operated using precise mapping data gathered and processed after the Golden Spike is set at the center of the city. This dataset is exported from that mapping operation and provides the GPS locations of streets, trash fence, and points of interest in the city.

Data is posted to GitHub when it is made available: https://github.com/burningmantech/innovate-GIS-data

Data Provided in GeoJSON:

  • Street Outlines
  • Street Centerlines
  • Portable Toilets
  • City Outline (trash fence)
  • Plazas
  • City Blocks
  • Deep-Playa Music Zone (DMZ)
  • Points of Interest (CPNs)

2025 Public Camps Map

The 2025 Public Camp Map is provided by Placement and posted at Playa Info. The map is not 100% accurate as camps can move up until they are officially placed. The most up to date information about the location of camps is available via the Burning Man Public API.

For more information visit the 2025 Black Rock City Plan.

This year iBurn developers Chris Ballinger and David Brodsky have managed to geocode the camps in the PDF and convert to geoJSON. Theses files are also included along with the PDF map.

If you already have an API Key and want early access to this document fill out a Request for Early Access to The Public Camp PDF.
