By Land id
Last year was a banner year for renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Despite facing a few obstacles including a global pandemic, persistent supply chain challenges, and the rising costs of materials, growth of renewables hit a new record high in 2021.

Use Your Resources Wisely With Precision Agriculture Mapping
By Land id
The global population has quadrupled over the past century, and along with this population growth comes a rise in demand for food; by 2050, food demand is expected to increase between 59% and 98%. The problem is that land is a finite resource, and at the rate things are currently going, we won’t have enough of it to produce the food we need. That’s where GIS can make a world of difference. By implementing agriculture mapping techniques, farmers can practice precision farming, allowing them to get more out of the limited resources available to them.
When Real Estate Comps Software Meets GIS Technology
By Land id
Buying or selling a property takes a lot of research, and you’ll want to have all of the information available before making a transaction of this magnitude. One method realtors use to make well-informed, profitable decisions is analyzing comparable sales (comps for short). Similar to an appraisal, real estate comps are used to determine what a property is worth, but they do so in different ways. An appraisal is an unbiased evaluation by a licensed professional of a home’s value, while comps determine the value by looking at other properties with similar attributes. While appraisals tend to hold more legal weight, there are many benefits to using comps instead. To start, comparable sales are less expensive than appraisals, but more than that, they often take less time to acquire and evaluate, especially with real estate comps software. In today’s market, time is of the essence.
Protecting Our Urban Forests With Tree Mapping Software
By Land id
Urban trees are vital to our well-being, but the future of these gentle giants is under serious threat. Studies show that urban tree coverage in the US is declining at a rate of approximately 175,000 acres, or roughly 36 million trees, each year. The financial impact of this is severe; the loss of benefits is estimated to be at least $96 million a year. However, it’s not all doom and gloom. With the help of tree mapping software, we can protect our urban forests and restore them to their former glory.
It's a Winter Wonderland for Selling Land
By Land id
It’s a widely held belief that summer is the best time to sell land, while winter is the worst. In the past, perhaps it was true that house hunting in the dead of winter was not appealing for buyers, but the invention of the Internet — and tools such as Land id® — have changed that trend. Now, most buyers begin their search online, visiting listing sites and scrolling through photo galleries, so the cold weather is hardly a deterrent. In fact, according to the National Association of Realtors, 1.086 million homes were sold from December 2019 to February 2020.
