Who Are The Target Markets for SoilCertify Soil Intelligence?
• Landscaping/Maintenance: The report also offers basic suitability ratings like "Good Landscaping Potential", which appeals to general property owners interested in routine land use and maintenance. • Land Use Planners: Planners are key users of non-agronomic interpretations and prefer readily understood, generalized information on soil type, drainage, and development capability (including building sites and septic fields). They rely on these resources for non-site specific planning purposes and municipal zoning decisions. • Developers, Investors, and Lenders Any market segment requiring a fast, initial risk assessment before committing significant capital would find the SCPSR useful.

Why Does 10-Meter Resolution Matter for Geotechnical Analysis?
Traditional geotechnical reports rely solely on USDA NRCS county-level surveys. While authoritative, they cannot detect recent land modifications like fill dirt, grading changes, or subsurface alterations made after the original survey. SoilCertify solves this by layering Sentinel-2 satellite data at 10-meter resolution on top of NRCS surveys. This multi-source approach detects NDVI vegetation anomalies (indicating drainage issues), identifies land change patterns, and captures hyper-local geotechnical variations within individual parcels. The result: The most accurate instant geotechnical reports available—combining peer-reviewed USDA science with real-time satellite intelligence. No other service offers this level of precision without expensive on-site testing.
