Could you build this?
Partial The web portal and document Q&A are standard, but curating and continuously scraping up-to-date zoning ordinances, moratoria, and municipal meeting minutes across over 3,000 fragmented US counties is an intense data engineering challenge.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires a massive distributed scraping and OCR pipeline targeting thousands of idiosyncratic county and municipal government portals, GIS parcel databases, and recorded public hearing transcripts. The hard part is building reliable ingestion for non-standardized county PDFs, tracking local zoning law amendments in real time, and accurately parsing legal parcel setbacks and utility interconnection restrictions, demanding extensive geospatial and legal data pipeline engineering.
