3D Visual Intelligence: UKBuildings
UKBuildings – National Property Database
UKBuildings is a unique spatial property database of building characteristics created by 3D Visual Intelligence. Discover detailed information about individual buildings and gain a greater understanding of the character of an area. If you need to know the age, use, height, residential type, number of floors, location, structural detail, or area of a building, UKBuildings can help.
The core UKBuildings product has been created from the observation of aerial imagery and published open data ensuring that all buildings, both residential and non-residential, even those without addresses, are classified.

Whether they are residential, commercial or even derelict, buildings can be complex. They are often split by ownership, use or age, and can have one or many addresses associated with them. The UKBuildings property mapping database supports such complexity while remaining accessible.
Properties are classified by age, use and residential type with additional structural information such as footprint (area), height, and number of elements (for complex buildings). Property characteristics such as the presence of a basement, roof, wall, floor, and substructure types are included together with the number of rooms for residential properties.
