Roof Labeling

Labeling a roof

The draw → label → save pipeline that turns an aerial image into a measured roof.

Labeling is how the platform learns the shape of the roof. You trace each roof plane (panel) and tell it what each edge is. Everything downstream — the 3D model, cut sheet, BOM, and estimate — is built from these labels.

1. Draw the planes

  • Switch to Draw mode (press D or the toolbar button).
  • Click each corner of a roof plane to trace its outline.
  • Press Enter or double-click the last point to close the shape (3+ corners).
  • Repeat for every plane on the roof.

2. Label the edges

  • Switch to Label mode (press L or the toolbar button).
  • Click an edge, then pick its type from the popup (eave, ridge, hip, valley, rake…).
  • Keep going until no edge is left as “unlabeled”.

3. Save

  • The Save Labels button enables once every panel is fully labeled.
  • Saving regenerates the cut sheet, BOM, and estimate automatically.
Toggle the heatmap/elevation overlay if the aerial image is shadowed and edges are hard to see.
