Start with a property address and get a preliminary roof takeoff workflow that labels the data source behind the result. MyRoofGenius uses open public data, USGS 3DEP LiDAR where available, aerial context, and review-gated estimate tools so contractors can see what should be trusted and what still needs field verification.
The address workflow turns a property location into a preliminary takeoff context: roof area, pitch cues, facets where available, waste assumptions, and bid notes that a contractor can review.
Open-data roof measurement is only useful when the source is visible. MyRoofGenius labels whether the draft used USGS 3DEP LiDAR where available, aerial imagery, AI-assisted photo review, or manual estimator context.
The practical output is a bid-ready starting point, not a promise that every roof is final from public data. It organizes quantity context, assumptions, and next checks so the estimator can move faster while staying accountable.
Address-based takeoff is strongest for early screening, fast bid setup, and comparing likely scope before a site walk. Final bid quantities still belong to the qualified contractor or estimator.
Open-data and AI-assisted takeoffs are estimator support. Verify measurements, roof access, roof-system details, and unusual geometry before customer-facing use.
