In the age of real-time applications and data-driven decision making, how property data is delivered is just as important as the data itself. From bulk files to live APIs and seamless Snowflake integration, ATTOM provides multiple delivery options that ensure the data is clean, structured, and ready for immediate use.
Why Delivery Method Matters
Legacy data providers often rely on static file dumps. However, today’s businesses require more flexible and scalable solutions that align with modern infrastructures:
- Real-time access through property data APIs
- Secure data sharing via cloud platforms like Snowflake
- Incremental updates instead of full data refreshes
- File formats optimized for performance, such as Parquet and GeoParquet
Without these delivery options, engineering and analytics teams often spend excessive time managing ingestion pipelines and formatting issues.
ATTOM’s Property Data Delivery Solutions
| Delivery Method | Ideal Use Case |
| Bulk File Delivery | Historical data loads, offline ingestion, large-scale onboarding |
| API Access | Real-time queries, web and mobile applications |
| Match and Append | Enriching your existing address or contact lists |
| Snowflake Secure Sharing | Direct access from within your Snowflake account |
Snowflake Integration
ATTOM’s integration with Snowflake enables secure, direct access to curated datasets within your own Snowflake environment. This approach removes the need for ETL pipelines or traditional file transfers.
Key Benefits:
- Secure, governed data sharing with no duplication
- Continuous updates reflected in real time
- Reduced operational overhead
- Optimized for analytics, data science, and geospatial processing
- Compatible with internal business intelligence or machine learning platforms
For organizations already working within the Snowflake ecosystem, this is the most efficient way to consume property data.
Support for Parquet and GeoParquet
ATTOM supports delivery in Parquet and GeoParquet formats to meet the needs of data and analytics teams.
- Columnar storage improves query performance
- Smaller file sizes reduce storage and transmission costs
- Optimized for geospatial workflows and cloud-native architectures
These formats are ideal for teams using platforms like Databricks, Spark, or Snowflake.
