How industry leaders use building footprints

The 3D Building Footprints product provides GIS-ready building data to support a host of mapping and spatial analysis functions. Example applications include:

Broadband mapping: Accurately map and report fixed and mobile broadband coverage with unprecedented granularity.
Improved geocoding: Go beyond street level or parcel centroid based geocoding solutions to accurate building rooftop based locations.
Enhanced mobile marketing: Target your customers better based on their proximity to a building geofence.
Improved insurance underwriting: Use distance to buildings locations to understand and model property risk from floods, landslides, fire, utility lines, trees etc.
5G planning: Create accurate models with 3D buildings for RF simulation.
City planning: Understand urban growth, map heat islands, conduct line of sight analysis, generate 3D building models etc.
Change analysis: Map buildings across different years to enable detailed insights into residential and commercial construction activity across time.
Building monitoring: Find and map unapproved structures by comparing building permit data to ground structures.
Population mapping: Use dasymmetric mapping with building footprints to map and visualize demographic data precisely across regions.
