Construction activity per mesh block
/v1/suburbs/{suburb_name}/development/construction-activity10¢ per callSatellite-detected construction change per mesh block plus a suburb rollup.
Exact suburb identifier required. Exact ABS Suburb and Locality (SAL) name, e.g. Burwood (NSW) — many suburbs carry a state suffix. If starting from free text or an unverified bare name, first call GET /v1/geocode/suburb?q=<text>, then use the exact data[].area_name it returns. Suburb data endpoints do not guess a state or typo-correct names.
Price: 10¢ per call.
