Nearmap, a global property intelligence company, has announced the next phase of its evolution by bringing together geospatial data capture, AI-derived analytics, and verified building materials data into a single, proprietary platform. This unified approach aims to replace fragmented property data and manual processes with a comprehensive, frequently updated understanding of properties at scale.

Why it matters

Organizations across industries like insurance, government, and construction have traditionally had to piece together information from multiple providers to understand property conditions. Nearmap's new platform connects visual data, AI analytics, and verified materials insight to create a single, trusted source of truth for property decisions, helping reduce uncertainty and enable faster, more confident actions.

The details

Nearmap's platform combines the company's patented camera technology for high-resolution aerial imagery capture, AI-driven analytics to derive insights about structures and conditions, and building materials intelligence acquired through the 2025 acquisition of itel. This integrated approach allows organizations to review property details, assess risk, and make decisions within a single platform, rather than relying on disparate data sources.

  • Nearmap was founded in Australia in 2007.
  • The company was acquired by Thoma Bravo, a leading software investment firm, in 2023.
  • Nearmap acquired itel, a leader in building materials intelligence, in 2025.
  • Nearmap announced the next phase of its evolution as a global property intelligence company on April 13, 2026.

What they’re saying

“Organizations have long been forced to make important property decisions without having the full picture—an image here, a dataset there, and a lot of manual interpretation between.”

— Andy Watt, Chief Executive Officer at Nearmap

“Nearmap imagery is one source of truth that allows us to understand many attributes about a property that standard data sources may not catch.”

— Adam Sturt, Chief Analytics Officer at Kin Insurance

“Advanced technology is the only way we can keep up with the largest workload of one of Oklahoma's 77 counties — and using Nearmap helps us do our job — faster, safer, better, and cheaper.”

— Larry Stein, Assessor for Oklahoma County

“Organizations are under increasing pressure to understand property risk, cost, and change with far greater precision. The Nearmap approach to combining capture, analytics, and materials intelligence creates a differentiated platform that addresses those needs.”

— Peter Hernandez, Principal at Thoma Bravo

What’s next

Nearmap plans to continue investing in its capture technology, artificial intelligence, and data innovation to further expand its property intelligence capabilities and support customers across North America, Australia, and beyond.

The takeaway

Nearmap's unified platform for geospatial data, AI analytics, and verified building materials data represents a significant step forward in providing organizations with a comprehensive, trusted source of truth for property-related decisions.
