Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Mercator AI Inc.

$38,000.00

Construction Intelligence - Project ID

FY 2022-23 · 2022-11-15

Summary
Our initial focus for this project will be to leverage ML and AI on top of our 4 markets which include Calgary, Toronto, Edmonton and Vancouver with sights on expanding to Austin, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The data documents we are looking to compose our "Project ID" consist of Permitting, Leasing, PDF scraping, land titles, etc. The problem is correlating disparate and multi-frequency data points into more than just a civic address and knowing early indicators from all these data points calculated into their relevant sectors/verticals but also their accurate timelines and statuses.

Description (French)
Notre objectif initial pour ce projet sera de tirer parti de l’apprentissage automatique et de l’IA sur nos 4 marchés, à savoir Calgary, Toronto, Edmonton et Vancouver, avec l’intention de s’étendre à Austin, San Francisco et Los Angeles. Les documents de données que nous recherchons pour composer notre ID de projet consistent en permis, baux, grattage de PDF, titres fonciers, etc. Le problème est de corréler des points de données disparates et multifréquences en plus d’une simple adresse civique et de connaître les indicateurs précoces de tous ces points de données calculés dans leurs secteurs/verticaux pertinents, mais aussi leurs calendriers et statuts précis.
