Shovels can push the full nationwide history of building permit and contractor records directly into your Snowflake, Big Query, or Databricks accounts. We can also provide parquet files.
To get our permit data in Snowflake, we just need your public org and account identifiers. No extra engineering or security support required.
To get permit data into your Big Query account, we just need a Google service account. The tables will arrive pre-formatted and ready to query.
We know that dealing with CSV files is a massive headache, especially with complex data and confusing serializations. That's why we like parquet and prefer to send building contractor and permit data in this format.
With our private table sharing service, updates are done automatically. When we have new production data, it flows into your Snowflake, Big Query, or Databricks account automatically.
For super custom reporting, we can run SQL locally and format your report exactly the way you want it. For these requests, we'll deliver as CSV and offer both one-time and monthly options.
We won't make your legal team nitpick every line of our terms and conditions. Terms are designed to give you flexibility to reuse and even resell Shovels data.
