1. A method of determining a land use based regulatory history comprising:
- crawling a plurality of remote computers over a communications network to build a local database, the plurality of remote computers being known to have land use based regulatory history data associated therewith;
storing, in the local database, remote computer identifications associated with each of the plurality of remote computers;
retrieving a plurality of real property identifiers from the plurality of remote computers over the communications network based upon the remote computer identifications, each of the plurality of real property identifiers having land use based regulatory history data associated therewith;
searching the local database for a given real property based upon a given real property identifier associated therewith to determine which of the plurality of remote computers has land use based regulatory history data available for the given real property;
determining whether the land use based regulatory history data available for the given real property is complete;
retrieving land use based regulatory history data from another remote computer over the communications network based upon at least one of the retrieved plurality of real property identifiers when the land use based regulatory history data available for the given real property is not complete, wherein the another remote computer has a remote computer identification different from the remote computer identifications associated with each of the plurality of remote computers; and

Abstract
Described is a method and system for retrieving and serving the regulatory history of a property. An identification of data sources for permits and approvals is stored in a computer system. Property identifiers from the data sources are stored in the computer system. The system identifies the types of permit and approval data available from each of the data sources for each of the property identifiers. A determination can be made of the completeness of the regulatory history available for each property associated with each of said property identifiers. The system receives a request for the regulatory history of at least one of the properties associated with the property identifiers. A web page is populated with a list of the regulatory history for the property.
