The building outlines and property splits are digitised at 1;1,000 scale to give an accuracy of +/-3m RMSE.

Building height data precision is 0.1 metre. Height values are accurate to 1.5m to 2.3m vertical accuracy at 1 standard deviation (68% confidence limit).

Building age and type classification is at 90%+ accuracy levels (for 68% confidence limits).

This demonstrator, for the centre of Kingston upon Hull, shows the many layers of data available within UKBuildings.

• The building footprints are blue outlines and colour-coded to show the total number of addresses within each building block; an accumulation value.
• Non-residential buildings are shown in multi-coloured dots
• Residential buildings in yellow dots
• Companies House data has been added in large green dots
• We also show how these data can interact with third party data, here Environment Agency flood data.
• The base mapping is from OpenStreetmap via Mapbox.
