BuildData also tracks contractor profiles, business licences, development permits, property assessments, and zoning for Edmonton, available through the same API with the same parameters. BuildData collects and normalizes these records from Edmonton’s open data portals on a daily-to-weekly cadence (by dataset), making 242k+ Edmonton permits searchable through a single REST API.

15k+ building permits were issued in Edmonton, AB over the past 12 months, representing $4.5B in declared construction value. Renovation permits lead by volume. Every record is geocoded and normalized to a consistent schema, so you can query Edmonton the same way you query any other Canadian city in the dataset.
