  • Publication number: 20250131710
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and building analysis systems are disclosed that analyze an overhead image to generate a building outline for a building associated with a property represented by the overhead image. The overhead image is included in imagery data obtained from an overhead imagery server based on a received request comprising a geographic location for the property. The building outline is then shifted or rotated. Segment(s) of the building outline are slid to match identified wall(s) of the building. The building outline is then modified based on property feature(s) detected based on an application of one or more trained machine learning classifiers to the overhead image. At least a portion of the overhead image is output with a graphical overlay comprising the building outline via a user interface in response to the received request.

  • Publication number: 20250037454
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and roof analysis systems are disclosed that preprocess overhead images in imagery data obtained based on a request comprising a geographic location. The overhead images depict a building at different historical points in time identified in the imagery data. A neural network is applied to input data structures into which the overhead images are converted. The neural network is trained to extract relationships between features from the input data structures indicating changes in a roof of the building and generate an output data structure representing the changes. Patterns in the output data structure are analyzed to determine instances of change of the roof. A roof age is then output via a user interface in response to the request. The roof age is generated based on a likelihood of the instances of change or a time interval between the overhead images and a current time.
