How to measure a roof from satellite imagery
A practical address-to-report workflow: check the roof outline, review pitch and edges, and use the measurements for a roofing takeoff.
Roof pitch: ratios, degrees and surface area
Understand 4:12, 6:12 and 8:12 roof pitches, convert rise and run to degrees, and see why slope changes a roof area estimate.
Roofing squares and waste: a takeoff guide
Convert square feet to roofing squares, keep measured area separate from waste, and estimate materials without double-counting slope.
Satellite roof measurement accuracy: what to check
Understand imagery limitations, pitch outliers, roof outlines and report differences before using satellite measurements for an estimate.
