About Query
Query is a lookup site that shows what is happening in a place in Turkey right now, from official sources: power, water, natural gas and internet outages, duty pharmacies, earthquakes and weather. It is free and needs no sign-in.
What it does
Outage information in Turkey is spread across dozens of websites: 21 electricity distribution companies, a separate water utility or municipality in every province, 73 natural gas distribution licences. Query reads the lists these agencies publish openly and shows them in one place for all 81 provinces and 973 districts.
Every record shows its source and time. Where an agency publishes nothing, Query shows no data and points to the agency's own lookup page.
What it does not do
- Query is not a government website and has no tie to any of the agencies it mentions.
- It never asks for an ID number, subscriber number, licence plate or phone number.
- It takes no outage reports from users and makes no forecasts.
- For earthquakes it gives no risk comments, aftershock forecasts or damage reports.
Who makes it
Query is a Wiozen product, at query.wiozen.com. Signing in is optional and only used to save places; it uses a Wiozen account.
How it pays for itself
Query will be funded by ads. Ad spaces are set aside on the pages, but no ads run yet. Even when they do, there will be no ads inside tables or lists, next to duty pharmacy cards, or on pages where no source is connected.
Open data
The data on the pages is also available as JSON at /api/v1, with no key. For openly licensed sources (AFAD, USGS, MET Norway, İzmir Metropolitan Municipality) you get full records; for the rest you get counts per place and a link to the official source.
