Greetings dear members, I would like to develop an algorithm that uses remote geographic sensing data to automatically identify, highlight, and measure rooftops and buildings surfaces and contours using Geospatial data. My preference is to overlay the results on one of the existing map providers such as Google Earth/maps or Bing .
My aim is to get the following outputs from the proposed model: * Accurately highlighted and identified rooftops on Google maps (using geo sensing data, elevation? and * Property Address or GPS coordinate. * Surface and square footage available for solar power generation including the position of the property(N-S or E-W). At the exact surface of the south facing portion of the roof. * Integrate sun tool in google maps to calculate shading for each building. * Total surface/square footage of the roof. I would appreciate your guidance on the following: * Any individual developers or companies active in this area who would be willing to undertake this challenge * View on technical do-ability of the project * What free geospatial data is available/needed to build the model and who the providers are? (I understand that US cleared higher resolution imagery for domestic ) * An idea about the overall cost for such a model. Best regards, Sid
