Question: Which features are clipped when parcelMode is true?
Answer: The following features are clipped when parcelMode is true:
- Building under construction
- Building
- Building Lifecycle
- Roof
Question: If roof is clipped to the parcel boundary, will any features belonging to the roof, for example roof staining, also be clipped?
Answer: No, not at this time. Work is on the product roadmap to provide this.
Question: If roof is clipped to the parcel boundary, will any attributes of the roof, for example hip, also be clipped?
Answer: No. Attributes do not have a clippedGeometry or `Geometry`. The areaSqm and ratio relate to the unclipped geometry.
Question: Often a feature does not have clippedGeometry, but does have clippedAreaSqm. Why?
Answer: This often happens when a slither of a feature is beyond the parcel boundary, but does not belong to the adjoining parcel. The clippedAreaSqm tells you how much of the feature is in the boundary whilst this clipped data is not used for processing attributes and scores such as RSI.
Question: When the request parameters include parcelMode=true, the response contains a belongsToParcel attribute on each feature. Why is that?
Answer: If the AI detects features that are geometrically within the parcel boundary, but appear to belong to an adjacent parcel, the feature will be included in the response with belongsToParcel=false. For example, if a neighbor's shed is geometrically slightly over the parcel boundary, the response will include the shed’s data but highlight that the shed does not belong to the parcel.
