Abstract
Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and roof analysis systems are disclosed that preprocess overhead images in imagery data obtained based on a request comprising a geographic location. The overhead images depict a building at different historical points in time identified in the imagery data. A neural network is applied to input data structures into which the overhead images are converted. The neural network is trained to extract relationships between features from the input data structures indicating changes in a roof of the building and generate an output data structure representing the changes. Patterns in the output data structure are analyzed to determine instances of change of the roof. A roof age is then output via a user interface in response to the request. The roof age is generated based on a likelihood of the instances of change or a time interval between the overhead images and a current time.
