VOXEL DEED keeps spatial claims labeled
VOXEL DEED is a live prototype for browsing place records that pair GIS context with stated spatial-use preferences.
- For
- People evaluating spatial data provenance and use policies
- Worth noticing
- The Roosevelt Island example estimates an 8,640,000 m³ envelope from 48,000 m² × 180 m, while explicitly disclaiming surveyed geometry.
Field notes
The interface separates observation, interpretation, and use rules, with fields for source, date, coverage, license, method, confidence, reviewer, publisher, scope, and contact information. Its Roosevelt Island volume estimate is derived from configured dimensions, and the page stresses that neither the modeled envelope nor the public GIS outline establishes surveyed boundaries or legal rights. Several advertised-adjacent workflows, including photo ingestion and AI reconstruction, are explicitly not implemented.
