Property products often repeat the same difficult work: joining address data, spatial geometry, imagery and domain-specific analysis. That creates inconsistent results and slows every new product built on top.
GeoM8
A reusable spatial foundation for location-aware products.
GeoM8 combines property, address, parcel, building and imagery data into a shared platform for analysis and operational workflows.
GeoM8 provides a common property intelligence layer that can be queried by address, visualised in maps and reused by products such as RoofM8.
The useful part is how the components become one workflow.
A working example of joined-up engineering.
Spatial foundations can be reused instead of rebuilt per product.
Local open-weight models can sit beside conventional APIs and data services.
Property identity, geometry and imagery can support multiple operational products.
How the system is put together.
- PostgreSQL and PostGIS for spatial storage and query
- Property and address lookup with ranked matching
- Reusable APIs for buildings, parcels and imagery
- Local AI services using open-weight Qwen models
- Containerised services on dedicated infrastructure
Deliberate architecture choices.
- Keep foundational property data central rather than duplicating it across products
- Use local models where cost, privacy and control are valuable
- Retain managed services where they provide genuine operational leverage
The result is working capability.
These are capability outcomes rather than invented client metrics. Commercial measures can be added as the products are deployed and benchmarked.
A consistent property identity across products
Faster development of domain-specific workflows
Greater control over inference cost and deployment
A platform that can support new spatial products without starting again
