Abstract
A system and method is provided for measurements of building façade elements by combining ground-level (201) and orthogonal imagery (906). The measurements of the dimension of building façade elements are based on ground-level imagery that is scaled and geo-referenced using orthogonal imagery (209). The method continues by creating a tabular dataset (1002) of measurements for one or more architectural elements such as siding (e.g., aluminum, vinyl, wood, brick and/or paint), windows or doors. The tabular dataset can be part of an estimate report (1002).
