The Spatial Edge: Geospatial Intelligence in Valuer CoPilot
This session introduces the latest geospatial capabilities in Valuer CoPilot Map, featuring Overture Maps Foundation data and high-resolution Maxar satellite imagery. Participants will explore how geospatial intelligence enhances valuation practice by supporting pre-inspection planning, site assessment, comparable analysis, and evidence-based report preparation. The course also demonstrates practical applications of the new geospatial layers, highlights professional considerations when using map and imagery data alongside physical inspections, and provides a preview of upcoming geospatial modules that will further strengthen valuation workflows.

Key topics
- Introducing two new datasets coming to Valuer CoPilot Map: Overture Maps Foundation: open building footprints, places of interest, and land context (founded by AWS, Microsoft, Meta, TomTom)
- Maxar satellite imagery: 30cm-resolution current and historical imagery
- How to use these in professional practice: a 5-stage workflow anchor (instruction, pre-inspection, site inspection, comparables, report writing), report wording with two model citation sentences, a 5-C reliance checklist (Coverage, Currency, Corroboration, Caveat, Control), and a live VCP Map demonstration.
- A preview of the VCP data roadmap (Flood and Hillside Risk module, Georisk, Agricultural and Plantation Land module) and an in-progress engineering challenge: JPPH transaction records that arrive without coordinates or full address metadata, and the geospatial data science method used to resolve them.
Learning outcomes
- Explain what Overture Maps Foundation data is and its relevance to valuation practice

- Identify at least three practical applications of geospatial layers within their own valuation workflow
- Apply appropriate professional caveats when using imagery and map data alongside physical inspection
- Access and interpret the new geospatial layers within Valuer CoPilot Map
