How we create Building-Based Geocoding

Ecopia’s creation of the first and only complete map of US buildings enables us to develop the most precise rooftop-level geocoding solution on the market.

Accurate building footprints

Building-Based Geocoding is created from the only complete database of US building footprints, which Ecopia generates directly from high-resolution aerial and satellite imagery and updates each year. These footprints come with best-in-class contractually-guaranteed 97%+ accuracy specifications. Building footprints are also pre-appended with FEMA flood zone classifications to streamline risk assessment analytics.

Dedicated geocoding engine

Next, Ecopia's proprietary geocoding engine, designed to handle vast amounts of geospatial data, applies a unique machine-learning based parsing system to match each address to the correct building - resulting in the most comprehensive rooftop-level geocoding across the country.

Regular updates to source data

Lastly, Ecopia leverages our partnership with leading geospatial imagery providers to source fresh high-resolution imagery of the US each year. This imagery is mined using Ecopia's AI, providing an update of building footprints every year that are then further enhanced with the most up-to-date address data available and YoY change detection insights.

Don’t rely on street or parcel-level geocodes for your analysis

Confidently locate address points based on building footprints.
