SpaceAPI is an open standard for hackerspaces, makerspaces, fablabs, and similar community spaces to publish real-time information about their spaces in a machine-readable JSON format. It provides a central directory (collector) that aggregates endpoints from participating spaces around the world, enabling applications to discover and display space status, location, contact, and operational information.
