EagleView Technologies created the aerial roof measurement industry in 2008 and has since become the independent, third-party standard for the insurance industry to efficiently and accurately manage roof damage claims. In January 2013, the company merged with Pictometry International Corp. This new combination of measurement solutions, high-quality aerial imagery, and property data allows forensic investigators to have a comprehensive overview of each property both before and after major CAT events and investigations.

The technology behind EagleView's 3D aerial roof measurement reports provides investigators with a solid understanding of the property that is under investigation before they make their first visit, which builds a solid foundation for planning and preparedness. The reports include high-resolution property photos captured and processed using Pictometry's patented methods. These processes include taking Pictometry photos at an angle to show the north, south, east and west views of the property. This allows investigators to get a clear idea of the aspects of a building just from utilizing the imagery.

In addition to the top-down and side views provided by the high-resolution color photographs, the reports include detailed diagrams for length, area and pitch of the roof. The diagrams serve as critical documentation in final reports prepared by forensic investigators.
