How is the information made available?
Quarterly SOMA data is released on the internet in March, June, September,
and December and includes characteristics of the completed buildings and
absorption data. Annual data is released in April of each year and includes the
final absorption data and building characteristics from the previous year. In
September 2018, we started releasing SOMA data using a user-generated
format called Table Creator to replace the standard reports. Published SOMA
data can be accessed through the SOMA website at:
