Summary of findings

Property register

1. 01

   Rank 01 — AM-SPEC-01

   Distribution warehouse, six-section rooftop array

   All four rubric criteria met at once: a large visible array, a commercial parcel class, roof access, and a location inside the territory.

   DecisionContact first

   Evidence on record

   • Six array sections visible across a single rooftop plane in current imagery
   • Parcel record classifies the site as warehouse and distribution use
   • Roof hatch and perimeter access route visible from above
   • Sits 6 miles inside the example territory boundary

   Open checks before contact

   • Confirm the current owner of record and the facilities contact
   • Pull the installation permit and any monitoring or warranty registration
   • Ask whether an incumbent provider already services the array

   Limitation

   Imagery and parcel records cannot show production, equipment condition, warranty status, or whether the owner wants to be contacted.

2. 02

   Rank 02 — AM-SPEC-02

   Light industrial building, single-plane rooftop array

   Array and property type both match. The public record carries no installer, permit or operator detail, so qualification takes one more step.

   DecisionContact second

   Evidence on record

   • Continuous rooftop array visible on the main building plane
   • Parcel record classifies the site as light industrial use
   • No installation permit found in the published municipal record
   • Sits 11 miles inside the example territory boundary

   Open checks before contact

   • Identify the operating tenant as distinct from the owner of record
   • Establish who installed the array and who services it now
   • Confirm your team accepts arrays installed by another firm

   Limitation

   A missing permit record means the record is silent, not that the array is unpermitted.

3. 03

   Rank 03 — AM-SPEC-03

   Commercial building, rooftop array with adjacent tree canopy

   Imagery is 19 months old and mature canopy stands close to the west roof edge. The property stays in the set.

   DecisionHold — imagery

   Evidence on record

   • Rooftop array visible on the west half of the building
   • Mature tree canopy stands within roughly 20 feet of the west roof edge
   • Most recent usable imagery is 19 months old
   • Sits 14 miles inside the example territory boundary

   Open checks before contact

   • Source imagery under 12 months old before any outreach
   • Decide whether canopy proximity is relevant to the service you sell
   • Research ownership and any published service history

   Limitation

   Canopy near a roof edge is not proof of shading loss. Only current imagery, production data or an inspection can establish that.

Footnotes

1. Sources. Aerial and satellite imagery, county parcel and assessor records, municipal permit records, business registration data.
2. Ranking. Four criteria, in the same order for every property: territory fit, array evidence, property type, record completeness.
3. Imagery vintage. Each entry states the age of the imagery it relies on. Anything older than 12 months is flagged.
4. Status. A fictional illustrative example. No real property, owner, array or record was evaluated to produce it.
