# Municipal Intelligence

> Building permits, zoning, inspections, licences, development permits, and planning applications across Canadian municipalities.

NorthAxium Data Municipal Intelligence provides structured data on construction activity, land use, regulatory decisions, and business licensing across Canadian cities. Data is sourced directly from municipal open data portals and normalised across cities so you can query across jurisdictions without mapping each city's local terminology. Building permits, zoning lookup, business licences, and planning applications are available on live endpoints today.
