Artificial Intelligence, AI Aerial Maps On-demand

Nearmap AI is our image and object recognition product which enables you to derive deeper insights of an area or parcel in seconds. Derived from our high-resolution vertical and oblique imagery, you can easily interact with the relevant AI Layers from MapBrowser. Or should you simply want to bring our AI-derived data to your workflow, you can download or use AI Feature API and integrate with your tech stack.

Nearmap AI subscription unlocks two new features in MapBrowser: AI Layers, and AI Parcel Export.

With View AI Layers, you can add a visual overlay on top of our imagery to allow you to focus on what you care about most. Some of our AI Packs will come with multiple attributes, so be sure to discuss your requirements with your account manager to see the full range of attributes available to you. Or check out our documentation on our Help Centre.

After checking out the AI Layers, you may want to export the content to integrate into your in-house GIS platform or some other workflow applications for data enrichment — that is where AI Parcel Export comes in. AI Feature API is also available for more technical use cases.

To have access to AI Parcel Export, your organisation must be subscribed to Nearmap AI which comes with a predetermined AI Parcel Export credit for self-service export. You will also need to have Nearmap AI permissions, which your account administrator can provide you with.

Nearmap AI has been pre-processed at full resolution on our vertical imagery coverage and continues to be processed on every survey we fly from mid-2020 onwards. Historical data available on request. See below our growing list of AI Packs you can choose from:

• Building footprints
• Building characteristics (height & story attributes)
• Roof characteristics
• Vegetation
• Surfaces
• Swimming pools
• Solar panels
• Construction sites
• Trampolines
• and more

Nearmap AI Parcels are exported as Rich Geospatial File and Spreadsheet File (.csv). At launch, the Rich Geospatial File is an AI Parcel Geopackage (.gpkg) but we may add new geospatial file formats over time. Visit our Help Centre for more information.

If you want to interact programmatically with our data to always get the latest content, you can clip out a small area of our AI vector content using the AI Feature API. With the latest data on a property sized Query AOI typically returned in a few hundred milliseconds, this is ideal for integration into customer facing workflows where seconds matter.

We also recommend the AI Feature API for enterprise use, where massive throughput is required for regular bulk updates in an automated fashion. To learn more, visit our Help Centre.

Yes, Nearmap AI is a premium content type that empowers you to extract more actionable insights from our high-resolution aerial imagery. Our AI datasets are perfectly aligned to our imagery so you can verify content and see change over time. It’s a powerful combination which you must see for yourself.
