Status meanings

MAPPED

The metro’s full permit feed is ingested daily, classified to the canonical 18 cohorts, DQ-flagged at the field level, and parcel-joined to PLUTO or the local equivalent where available. API requests against a MAPPED metro return real production data.

SOURCE

Bronze ingest is active — raw permits are flowing into PermitCore — but cohort classification, DQ flagging, and parcel join are queued for production promotion. API requests against a SOURCE metro return sample rows, NOT the full feed. Promotion ETA: Q3 2026 per current roadmap.

DEPLOY-PENDING

The ingest pipeline code is merged but not yet running in production for this metro. API requests return no data; the cohort distribution endpoint returns 404 for these slugs. ETA: Q3 2026.

Slug list

  • Cohorts — the 18-cohort taxonomy that classifies every permit
  • Data freshness — daily refresh cadence + as_of_utc interpretation
