Roof age
Elapsed age of a roof at the source-stated observation or analysis date.
Sources that carry it
3 sourcesCurrent Nearmap-owned property intelligence and risk-management platform for insurers, with UI, REST API, SFTP, external warehouse, and core-system delivery. Nearmap's current legal terms let a licensee submit arbitrary property addresses and retrieve property information; the API supports arrays of addresses or coordinates and as-of dates. The full response documents imagery capture dates and per-building roof-age objects with an explicit `changed` boolean, before/after date array, age, installation date, evidence category, and capture count. Because the request and roof outputs are nested/repeated, they are retained in Source prose and not flattened into Features.
Current commercial U.S. residential- and commercial-property roof-age solution, formerly CAPE Analytics and now Moody's. It compares historical and current high-resolution aerial imagery using machine-learning change detection to identify a full roof replacement, and provides roof age in years, year of last full replacement, a confidence score, and related imagery. The current Moody's page explicitly offers API, batch-processing, and CAPE web-application access and states 95% accuracy.
Current commercial U.S. property-specific roof-age solution combining roof permits, more than 20 years of aerial imagery, computer-vision change detection, property context, and regional climate factors. It returns a roof-age result with confidence and can identify verified replacement dates or establish a minimum age when no material change is observed. ZestyAI claims approximately 95% U.S.-property coverage and approximately 92% accuracy. Public pages establish current licensed insurer use and portfolio-scale evaluation, but do not expose a product-specific public API/file contract; consumption-mode booleans remain conservative.
