# Atlasly

> Atlasly is an AI-powered pre-construction site intelligence platform built for architects, structural engineers, urban planners, and pre-construction consultants. It compresses weeks of manual site research into rapid automated analysis with professional outputs.

## What Atlasly Does

Atlasly automates pre-construction site analysis by assembling verified terrain, climate, planning, environmental, and contextual data into a single decision-ready package. Users select a site boundary on an interactive map, and Atlasly runs a multi-step intelligence pipeline covering geocoding, building footprints, topography, land use, green and blue infrastructure, street networks, heritage designations, ecology and biodiversity, physical features, planning history, policy search, land registry data, microclimate analysis, and transport connectivity.

## Core Capabilities

### 17-Step Site Intelligence Pipeline
Atlasly runs a 17-step automated pipeline for every site analysis:
1. Geocoding & Boundary Detection
2. Building Footprints & Heights (Microsoft Global Buildings, OSM)
3. Topography & Terrain Analysis (Mapbox Terrain-RGB, USGS 3DEP)
4. Land Use & Zoning
5. Green & Blue Infrastructure
6. Street Network & Access
7. Heritage Designations (listed buildings, conservation areas, scheduled monuments)
8. Ecology & Biodiversity (SSSIs, ancient woodland, protected species)
9. Physical Features & Utilities
10. Planning History
11. Policy & Compliance Search (NPPF, London Plan, local plans)
12. Land Registry & Ownership
13. Microclimate Analysis (solar radiation, wind, rainfall, temperature)
14. Transport Connectivity (PTAL, isochrones, public transport mapping)
15. CAD & GIS Export Generation (14 formats)
16. PDF Report Generation
17. AI Report Synthesis
