Cyclomedia’s imagery helps City of Louisville revitalize Vacant and Abandoned Properties

Properties are rated on severity from slightly damaged to unlivable.

MIDDLETON, WI, UNITED STATES, November 7, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- On August 11 during a live press briefing, City of Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer described how using Cyclomedia’s insights with a property condition survey helped the city identify Vacant and Abandoned Properties (VAP). Properties are rated on severity from slightly damaged to unlivable. The approach is twofold: helping the city identify properties and intervening before they deteriorate further and identifying unlivable properties that should be rebuilt or converted into a community space.

“Over the last two years in partnership with the PVA and GIS company called Cyclomedia, the Office of Housing and Community Development has been conducting a property condition survey using Artificial Intelligence technology to give us actual pictures of properties across our city, to see how many are deteriorating and truly abandoned… This survey also rates property based on the severity of their condition from slightly damaged to totally unlivable. This survey also allows us to identify properties on a downward trend, and intervene before they become totally unlivable,” says City of Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer.

This is an important part of a larger effort to revitalize the city. “Many of our properties have found new life as community gardens, new owner-occupied housing, rental housing, or even as businesses. It’s extremely gratifying to see the transformations take place, and to hear from neighbors about how the positive change on one property can make such a major impact,” says Laura Grabowski, Director of the Office of Housing and Community Development.
