Why is it important?
EagleView imagery is now available for Canadian projects as Imagery D in Manual Design (NREL) mode. Designers working on Canadian homes get high-quality imagery for more accurate designs, with roof area and squares provided by EagleView.
What will you need?
A project with a Canadian address.
Access to the Design Tool in Manual Design (NREL) mode.
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Open the proposal for the Canadian project and launch the “Design Tool”.
Step 2: Choose “Manual Design (NREL)” mode.
Step 3: In the imagery options, select “Imagery D” to load EagleView imagery.
Step 4: Build your design on the EagleView imagery. Roof area and squares come from EagleView.
Real Life Scenario
A designer in Ontario has a project where the standard imagery is blurry. They open the Design Tool in Manual Design (NREL) mode, switch to Imagery D, and trace the roof on clear EagleView imagery for a more accurate layout.
Pro Tip
Compare Imagery D with the other imagery options for each project and use whichever gives the clearest view of the roof.
Troubleshooting
Problem: I don’t see Imagery D
Imagery D is available only for Canadian projects in Manual Design (NREL) mode. Check the project address and the design mode.
Problem: I don’t see facet-level measurements
For Canada, EagleView provides roof area and squares only. Facet-level data is not included.
