Curb to door

Looks at the way in from outside: parking near the entrance, accessible stalls if the aerial photo shows them, how far it is to the door, and steps at the door.

  • How far is it from parking to the front door?
  • Are there steps up to the entrance?

For the agent, the tool is described as: The outside part of an access audit for one scan, from the Vexcel aerial photo and the entry panoramas: parking near the building (stalls, parked cars, driveway), wheelchair symbols, straight-line distance and ground rise from the nearest parking to the entrance, and steps, stairs or ramps at the entrance. Confidence is low where the scan’s geo position is approximate.

Planning for an older parent, Film or photo location scout, Older adult or family, Wheelchair user looking for a home, Wheelchair user.

Input Type Required Default Notes
scan string yes Scan id. Filled from the selected building.
radius_m number (m) 40 How far around the building to look. Range: at least 10, at most 100.
read_panoramas boolean true Look for steps in the panoramas by the entrance.

An input that nothing fills (the selected building, a saved preference, a persona’s preset) becomes a question to the person. The agent asks only for those.

Layer Id Needed If it is missing
Aerial photo vexcel.ortho required The verdict is unknown, with the reason.
Scan position matterport.geo required The verdict is unknown, with the reason.
360° photos matterport.panos optional The tool runs without it.

A tool result: a verdict (pass, warn, fail or unknown), metrics, checks and findings, each with its source.

  • Draws on the building: pins on what it found.
  • Panel blocks: VerdictHeader, MetricRow, CheckList, EvidenceStrip, AssumptionChips, StepLog.
  • Speed: slow. Read-only.

Curb to door: the part outside. Parking near the entrance and accessible stalls if the aerial photo shows them, the distance from parking to the entrance, the ground rise along it, and steps at the entrance seen in the entry panoramas. The join between the aerial photo and the scan is uncertain, and the tool says so.

Every metric and finding carries its layer, its method and a high, medium or low label, set by the tool for each value. See findings and reliability.

  • Needs: aerial photo, scan position. On a scan without them, the verdict is unknown and says why.
  • It is slow: progress steps reach the workspace while it runs.
  • A result is a planning aid, not an inspection.

This section was written by running the tool when the docs were built, on a hand-made RoomPlan export (no real place was scanned), with no sponsor keys and the network switched off.

Unknown This scan has no geocoordinates, so it cannot be placed on the aerial photo.
