Can real estate data be automated through Street View? It could potentially be useful for maintaining property databases, developing High Street key plans, detecting opportunities, and more.
I’ve developed this small POC app that:
Takes a street and a range of numbers/addresses.
Calculates the optimal route and sets intermediate points every X meters. Processes each point by downloading street captures from both the left and right sidewalks.
Performs a visual analysis of each image to obtain details about stores, activity sectors, asset descriptions, and searches for the commercial agent if it detects that the space might be for rent or sale.
Is it perfect? 
No, there are challenges like the update frequency of Street View (1-3 years depending on the city’s/street’s relevance), vision model accuracy, and obstructions in the camera view such as buses or trees. Everything will come in time.
