POL is an easy-to-use subscription based technology that enables a user to access a vast database of visual and measurable property information. Users of this technology may search for properties of interest and view them from every direction in 3D-like high resolution aerial views and perform detailed site measurements.“It is essential that we consistently create value for our professionals and our clients by introducing new services and technologies. Pictometry empowers real estate professionals to be the expert on any given property by giving them access to the subject and comparable properties, area surroundings and possible buying or selling obstacles,” said Charles Sevier, CCIM, SIOR and 2011CORFAC International president.Real estate professionals with access to Pictometry can locate and view properties and structures with accuracy and clarity from the convenience of their own computer. Pictometry enables the user to measure how far a property is from an obstruction, such as a railroad track, measure the steepness of a driveway, or see the parcel boundary right on the image, from multiple perspectives. This allows brokers to share detailed imagery of properties with potential buyers, thus reducing the need for multiple property visits, especially in remote locations or to locations with difficult or restricted access.“We are extremely pleased to have formed this alliance with CORFAC International. “CORFAC members will benefit greatly from Pictometry’s services which are certain to set them apart from the competition,” said Vele Galovski, vice president of real estate for Pictometry International Corp.
