SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It computes ridge, hip, valley, eave, and rake edge metrics from roofing imagery and DSM-derived layers, converting visual data into precise, actionable measurements.

Core Features & Use Cases

Retrieves edge measurements (ridge, hip, valley, eave, rake) from the roofing app's solar-layers data.
Returns a structured payload including roof_model_v1 metadata to support downstream geometry reasoning.
Supports an optional API base override and provides both calibrated and raw edge reports when calibration is configured.

Quick Start

Compute edge metrics for a given address using the roofing tool.

FAQPage Schema

How do I calculate roof edge measurements from DSM and imagery data?▼

Roof edge metrics are computed by extracting ridge, hip, valley, eave, and rake measurements from solar-layers data derived from DSM and imagery, returning a structured payload with edge reports in feet.

Can I process geospatial roof edge metrics for multiple addresses in a batch?▼

Yes, you can process geospatial roof edge metrics for multiple addresses in a batch. The tool supports batch processing tasks to retrieve edge measurements across individual addresses efficiently.

What roof edge types are identified from solar-layers data?▼

The roof edge types identified from solar-layers data include ridge, hip, valley, eave, and rake. These specific edge metrics are computed to provide precise geospatial roof analysis measurements.

Does roof edge extraction require an external solar-layers API endpoint?▼

Roof edge extraction requires a solar-layers endpoint to function. If the solar-layers endpoint is unavailable, the process provides error reporting and includes optional API-base handling for overrides.

What metadata is included in the roof edge report payload?▼

The roof edge report payload includes edge_report_ft, raw_edge_report_ft, and roof_model_v1 metadata. This structured data supports downstream geometry reasoning for geospatial roof analysis workflows.
