ROOF MEASUREMENT

Solaris Roof Measure

Dedicated roof workflow for aerial/property imagery, roof facets, pitch, ridges, hips, valleys, rakes and eaves.

Enter the property address to locate the roof.

PROPERTY

Locate roof

We'll locate the address, then drag the pin onto the exact roof if needed.

Satellite map will appear here after an address is located.

STEP 1

Property imagery

Upload or capture roof imagery for the property.

Add Roof Photos

STEP 2

Roof geometry

Map facets, ridges, hips, valleys, rakes and eaves.

STEP 3

Roof takeoff

Calculate roof area, squares, waste and linear materials.

ROOF GEOMETRY WORKSPACE

Selected roof

Trace the roof directly over the satellite reference. Geometry tools are the next measurement layer.

ROOF WORKFLOW

Process this roof

One guided workflow runs roof detection, Google DSM, LiDAR extraction and plane fitting. Review the outline once, then Solaris handles the technical steps.

Ready

Click Process Roof. Solaris will stop only when it needs you to confirm the detected roof outline.

ANALYSIS IMAGERY

MnGeo aerial roof image

Independent Minnesota aerial imagery used for roof analysis. Google remains the locator/reference map.

Resolving property coordinates…

Accept the roof outline first, then detect and classify internal roof geometry.

3D ROOF SOURCE

USGS 3DEP LiDAR

Find the point-cloud acquisition covering this roof. This will replace image-only guesses for facets and pitch.

Not checked

LiDAR source has not been resolved yet.

HYBRID ROOF ENGINE

Google Solar DSM Analysis

Independent rooftop mask + DSM + Google roof-segment analysis used to cross-check the USGS LiDAR model and propose roof-line classifications.

Not run

Run this after confirming the property location. It does not replace the LiDAR model; it provides an independent second measurement engine.

TRAINING BENCHMARK

Compare against a verified roof report

Enter the Roofr / Hover / manual reference measurements. Solaris scores topology first, then roof lines, pitch and area, and saves this case to the shared benchmark library.

Not scored

Drop a Roofr / Hover PDF here
Solaris will extract the report totals, fill the benchmark fields, and save the report as training data.

No reference report uploaded for this roof yet.

SOLARIS TRAINING LAB

39-case roof regression suite

Runs the current roof solver against all verified Roofr, Hover and EagleView cases in the training corpus, including structure-scoped cases. Cases without a saved Solaris DSM model are shown as pending.

Ready to test the current learned solver against the verified training corpus. Rebuild Training Models refreshes Solar DSM inputs; Optimize Topology tests multiple solver parameter sets against the corpus and saves the best profile-specific settings.

Topology optimizer has not been run yet.

EXTERIOR MEASUREMENT PLATFORM

Turn property photos into verified roofing and siding takeoffs.

Phase 1 focuses on guided photo capture, elevation understanding, benchmark comparison, and human correction.

AUTOMATED WORKFLOW

Process Property

Runs capture quality, overlap matching, correspondence scoring and house-model readiness in one pass.

Ready. This replaces the experimental step-by-step buttons for normal use.

MEASUREMENT ENGINE

House Model + Takeoff Preview

Build the shared house model, estimate provisional scale, and calculate a siding preview.

Run Process Property first.

Pixel geometry: waiting for measurement model.

PHASE 2

Exterior geometry

Trace measurement geometry with lines and polygons. This is stored separately from object detections.

PHASE 3

Cross-photo reconstruction

Build the house-level matching workspace from your verified objects and traced geometry.

Ready to build from the five traced views.

Legacy single-photo calibration is retained for diagnostics only. It is not used as a production measurement workflow.

Advanced diagnostics

CAPTURE QUALITY

Reconstruction readiness

Automatically checks elevation coverage before measurements are trusted.

Ready to check the current photo set. No additional input required.

PHASE 4

Cross-photo feature matching

Automatically tests the candidate overlaps and scores which photo pairs are usable for 3D reconstruction.

Ready to test the saved candidate photo pairs. No additional input required.
