Data sources

Works alongside your existing systems

AgencyCounter ingests permits, planning, zoning, parcels, inspections and GIS from the systems your jurisdiction already runs — through API, CSV, database output and other structured formats. Nothing is replaced. Nothing is written back.

Permitting & Record Systems

AgencyCounter connects to the permitting and record management platforms local governments use most. Each is ingested read-only — your existing system keeps running as it does today.

GIS platforms

Spatial data from your GIS platform is unified with permits and records by address and parcel — so a resident sees one view, not separate maps and databases.

Esri ArcGIS

GIS & Spatial

AgencyCounter ingests parcel, zoning and GIS layers from Esri ArcGIS. Spatial data is unified with records by address and parcel in one public view.

  • Ingest parcel, zoning and GIS layers from ArcGIS
  • Spatial data unified with permits and records by address

QGIS

GIS & Spatial

AgencyCounter ingests parcel, zoning and GIS layers exported from QGIS. Open-source spatial data is unified with permits and records by address and parcel.

  • Ingest parcel, zoning and GIS layers from QGIS exports
  • Spatial data unified with permits and records by address

County Assessor Data

GIS & Spatial

AgencyCounter ingests parcel, ownership and valuation data from county assessor offices. Assessor records are unified with permits, records and GIS layers by address and parcel.

  • Ingest parcel, ownership and valuation data from county assessors
  • Assessor data unified with permits and records by address

City Data

GIS & Spatial

AgencyCounter ingests local shapefiles provided directly by the agency — neighborhoods, business districts, and any other shapes known locally. These local boundaries are unified with permits, and records.

  • Ingest local shapefiles for neighborhoods, business districts and custom areas
  • Local shapes unified with permits, records and parcels by address
  • Provided directly by the agency — no third-party dependency

Open data & other formats

Your source system is not listed above? AgencyCounter also ingests from open-data portals, CSV and flat-file exports, and database copies — so jurisdictions whose systems are not named here can still launch in 4 weeks. Export in whatever format you already produce.

Open Data Portals

Open Data & other formats

AgencyCounter ingests from open-data portals that publish permits, planning, parcels and other records as downloadable datasets. Portal data is normalised and unified with your other sources by address and parcel.

  • Ingest from Open Data portal exports and downloadable datasets
  • Portal data unified with permits and records by address

CSV & flat-file exports

Open Data & other formats

AgencyCounter ingests CSV and flat-file exports from any system that can produce them. No API required. Export in whatever format you already produce and AgencyCounter normalises it into one unified public view.

  • Ingest CSV, TSV and flat-file exports from any system
  • No API required — export in whatever format you produce

Direct from Database

Open Data & other formats

AgencyCounter ingests from database copies and database outputs — scheduled exports, replication snapshots or direct database extracts. Database data is normalised and unified with our other sources by address and parcel.

  • Ingest from database copies, snapshots and extracts
  • Database data unified with record sets by address

How ingest works

Every source is ingested the same way: read-only, hosted by AgencyCounter, with the agency reviewing and approving. Source systems are untouched.

Read-only

AgencyCounter ingests and unifies. It never writes back to a source system. Your existing systems keep running exactly as they do today.

Multi-format ingest

API, CSV and flat-file exports, database outputs and other structured formats. Export in whatever format you already produce.

No infrastructure

Hosted by AgencyCounter. No servers, no databases to maintain, no version management. The jurisdiction provides no IT capacity.

Live in 4 weeks

AgencyCounter handles the setup. The agency reviews and approves. Launch takes four weeks from agreement on sources and criteria.
