It currently covers 19,652 onsens across all 47 prefectures, built by merging national datasets, prefecture and municipal open data, OSM, and water-chemistry sources into one searchable map.
You can filter by tattoo policy, prices, opening hours, access, and some water data, and each detail page links back to its sources. I’d especially appreciate feedback on search quality, missing data, and which filters or trip-planning features would make it more useful.
A girlfriend of mine (white girl) knew Japanese and would work at a hotspring in the US during the summer between semesters in college. It was her job to tell old Japanese men that the hotspring was not clothing optional.
I see lots of listing that appear to have no data or links. Or if they have links in the description, they are not clickable.
I am not seeing a filter. Or links back to sources, or an icon with the type of source. No offense, but this looks like a good 10% start.
I'm adding more data, it takes a while to ingest and process since there's 19000+ listings. it should be way more complete in the next few days
One quick takeaway: visitors might initially miss the 'tattoo-friendly' filter, which is a huge USP for international travelers. Helping that stand out could really drive engagement. Happy to share the full prioritized improvement plan if you're interested!
