Understanding data availability
Each municipality in Alberta independently decides what data to publish via ArcGIS or Socrata APIs. A in the comparison table means that municipality doesn't publish that data type — not that the underlying information doesn't exist. Edmonton and Calgary have the most comprehensive open data portals (assessments, permits, businesses, dev permits). Smaller municipalities often publish only zoning or parcel boundary data. Six municipalities provide only provincial-level indicators from the Alberta Regional Dashboard.
All data is fetched live from government APIs. Provincial indicators (population, income, permits, rents) come from the Alberta Regional Dashboard and are available for all municipalities regardless of their ArcGIS availability — see individual municipality pages for those metrics.
