Locate Trans and Intersex-Friendly Toilets.

refuge

The refuge package provides access to the Refuge Restrooms API in R.

Refuge Restrooms “is a web application that seeks to provide safe restroom access for transgender, intersex, and gender nonconforming individuals.” The web application includes a public API, which this package allows access to. The API does not require users to sign up or use a key. For further details on the API see the API docs, or the package vignette. For details on the organisation providing this data, check out the Refuge Restrooms homepage.

The API does not require registration or an API key.
