Plan your land and building in one workspace
Import a Google Earth boundary or enter survey boundaries, review the 2D site shape, and generate an indicative 3D building concept.
99DIG LAND DEVELOPMENT ANALYZER
Understand what you can build on your land before you start planning
99DIG Land Development Analyzer helps landowners, property investors and project planners turn a real land boundary into an early-stage development picture. You can define the site, review planning assumptions, understand setbacks, estimate a building footprint and see an indicative 3D building concept before moving into detailed design.
What can you do with 99DIG Land Analyzer?
- Define a land boundary using multiple boundary segments.
- Import a Google Earth KML or KMZ polygon and use its coordinates as the site geometry.
- Identify the road-facing boundary as the front side and understand the opposite boundary as the rear.
- Review indicative front, rear and side setback requirements.
- Estimate building coverage, FAR-based floor area, building footprint and indicative floors.
- Explore the site in 2D and view an indicative building massing in 3D.
- Generate a structured preliminary assessment report for review and planning discussions.
How the land analysis works
- Define the land. Enter the site information and draw the boundary, or import a Google Earth KML/KMZ polygon.
- Confirm the road side. Select the boundary that faces the access road. This becomes the front reference for the analysis.
- Review planning inputs. Choose the proposed use and review the planning assumptions used for the preliminary calculation.
- Calculate the development potential. The analyzer evaluates the site geometry, coverage, FAR, setbacks and indicative building parameters.
- See the result in 3D. The land boundary and indicative building footprint are visualized together so the relationship is easier to understand.
- Create the assessment. Save or print the resulting preliminary assessment with the key land, planning and visualization information.
Why analyze the land before designing the building?
A site can look large on a map but become much more constrained after road access, front and rear setbacks, side setbacks, coverage and other planning controls are considered. An early land development analysis helps you understand those relationships before investing time in a detailed concept.
Use the result as an early planning and feasibility reference — not as a substitute for a licensed survey, architectural design, title verification or statutory approval.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use a Google Earth boundary?
Yes. The analyzer supports KML and KMZ polygon imports so a prepared Google Earth site boundary can be used as the analysis geometry.
Can a land boundary have more than four sides?
Yes. The boundary workflow supports as many segments as the real site shape requires, including irregular polygons.
How are front and rear setbacks identified?
The selected road-facing boundary is treated as the front reference. The opposite boundary is treated as the rear reference, while the remaining boundaries are treated as side references for the indicative setback visualization.
Does the tool create a final architectural drawing?
No. The 3D building is an indicative massing concept designed to communicate the relationship between the land, setbacks and possible building footprint. Detailed architectural and engineering design still requires qualified professionals.
What does the final assessment contain?
The assessment can present key site geometry, planning inputs, development metrics, setback orientation, building footprint information and the generated 2D/3D visual context.
