Why it matters
Most industries that run on rules eventually turn those rules into data; the built environment has not yet. Once the layer exists, design-phase checking is only the first thing it makes easier: digital permitting, portfolio review, and as-operated compliance all draw on the same foundation.
Common question
Who benefits from a structured compliance data layer?
Design teams get checkable requirements during design. Jurisdictions get consistent, auditable review. Owners get portfolios whose compliance state is knowable. Technology companies get a foundation to build on instead of re-deriving code logic project by project.
