Location Analysis Services

     This service identifies desirable commercial land by analyzing all parcels within a target area, filtering based on target audience, site conditions, and regulatory compliance to reduce time and costs upfront, with detailed financial modeling performed later using automated valuation tools.

     Results are delivered and visualized through streamlined, mobile-friendly web maps designed for lead generation and mass LOI campaigns. For promising locations where landowners may be open to selling, we provide deeper analysis to assit with target demographics, demand potential, and development constraints.

     Our location analysis services service employs a hybrid approach, combining geospatial expertise with advanced GeoAI modeling. This collaborative workflow reliably addresses fragmented regulatory data across thousands of U.S. jurisdictions and ensures validation of findings at every stage, with AI serving as an integrated, powerful analytic tool rather than a standalone solution.

     By integrating AI-assisted screening, the service streamlines the search toward practical opportunities worth pursuing, and allows continuous adaptation to implement additional variables as needed.

Multifamily Land Search
with GeoAI Integration

Multifamily Land Search Demo

Intended Land Use:
• Apartments, Townhouses, and Single-Family Residences (SFR)

Territory:
• All of Palm Beach County, FL (40 jurisdictions)

Preliminary Site Criteria:
• Median Household Income > $60,000
• Building Value < $2 million
• Parcel Size > 1 acre

     In August 2025, this multifamily (MF) land search demo was enhanced with two new map layers: Training Data Selected (red) and GeoAI Passed (teal).


Random Forest GeoAI Results:


Explanation:
     This analysis examines nearly 65,000 parcels larger than one acre, selected from an initial pool of almost 700,000 countywide. Of these, 42 parcels were originally identified as potentially suitable (SELECTED = 1) through initial review. The GeoAI model subsequently identified 2 additional parcels (PASSED = 1) with a probability above the 35% threshold. However, both new sites were excluded upon further review. Certain real-world variables and filters, including potential multifamily sites within Planned Development designations, were intentionally excluded to keep the analysis practical for demonstration purposes.

     Data sources: Palm Beach County property appraiser and P&Z data as of August 2024, and the 2020 U.S. Census.

Analysis of Development Characteristics:

Partial Site Analysis Demo

Location:
• Parcel 0263900060 St. Johns County, FL

     For this demonstration, the scope includes the subject parcel, assemblage parcels under common ownership, QL1 Lidar, wetlands, soils, DRI boundaries, AADT, and 2020 Census demographic data (block group and 3-mile median income). Parcel details are simplified for easier review, with acreage calculations for wetlands and soils included.

     This site was selected for partial analysis after standing out in the Northeast Region heat map below. It features an estimated median household income of ~$110K and is surrounded by Residential, Commercial, Retail, and Mixed-Use DRIs, along with developer-held lands. Its visible development constraints make it a useful example to demonstrate custom layers.

     A 3D site view is available via a Google Earth link in the parcel table; mobile users will need the Google Earth app. Tap the blue “Explore Earth” button and the link opens.

     Data sources: St. John's County property appraiser and P&Z data as of 5 2025, the 2020 U.S. Census, Q2 2021 DRI data from the University of Florida's GeoPlan Center, Wetland data from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as of 10 2023, soils data from Natural Resource Conservation Service as of 2 2025, and FDOT traffic counts as of 1 2025.
