Registered Tourist Residences in Quebec Accommodation Directory

Government records list tourist residence establishments holding valid registration certificates under the Tourist Accommodation Act. Data originates from the Quebec Tourism Information System (SIT Quebec) and is published in CSV, XML, HTML, and JSON formats. The dataset provides a snapshot of certified operators at the time of file publication.

Use Cases

• Analyze the distribution and concentration of registered tourist residence establishments across Quebec municipalities.
• Verify the registration status of specific accommodation operators against the official government directory.
• Monitor changes in the inventory of certified tourist residences over successive publication dates.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the authoritative Quebec Tourism Information System (SIT Quebec).
• Records are limited to establishments with a registration certificate in force at publication time, ensuring a certified subset.
• Available in multiple machine-readable formats including CSV and JSON for flexible access.

Limitations

• The dataset scope is limited to one accommodation type (tourist residence), excluding hotels, B&Bs, or campgrounds.
• Row count, sample data, and specific column features are unknown, hindering preliminary assessment of analytical utility.
• Data represents a point-in-time snapshot; real-time registration status requires consulting the live official directory.
