Abstract
A computer-implemented method for detecting real estate vacancies using satellite imagery is described. The method is implemented using a computing device in communication with a memory. The method includes receiving, by the computing device, a first location identifier that identifies a first real property location. The method additionally includes retrieving, by the computing device, a first satellite image of the first real property location. Additionally, the method includes retrieving, by the computing device, a second satellite image of the first real property location. The method additionally includes generating, by the computing device, a compound image of the first real property location by overlaying the second satellite image over the first satellite image. Additionally, the method includes providing the compound image to a user interface, wherein the compound image provides an indication of one or more vacant portions of the first real property location.
