1. A system for providing land acquisition and property development analysis services, the system comprising:
a cloud-based server configured to communicate and exchange data with one or more computing devices over a network, the cloud-based server comprising a hardware processor coupled to non-transitory, computer-readable memory containing instructions executable by the processor to cause the server to:
provide a cloud-based digital platform comprising an interface with which a user can interact via an associated computing device over the network;
receive, via a data collection and management module, session data comprising:
user input with the interface, the user input comprising: a user's selection of a geographical area of interest displayed to the user via a graphical user interface (GUI) of the associated computing device; and user defined rules guiding analysis of the selected geographical area of interest; and
subsequent return of acquisition and development results for the selected geographical area of interest;
access and read one or more datasets from third party sources based, at least in part, on the session data;
compress in real time, via an in-memory object oriented processing engine and based on a compression algorithm, the one or more datasets from third party sources and store compressed datasets in tiers of cache based, at least in part, on a frequency of usage of compressed datasets;
analyze in real time, via the in-memory object oriented processing engine, the one or more compressed datasets from third party sources, wherein the analysis is based, at least in part, on the user defined rules and a set of scalar and spatial functions;
generate in real time, via the in-memory object oriented processing engine and based, at least in part, on the analysis of the one or more datasets from the third party sources, a plurality of processed datasets associated with one or more sites located within the selected geographical area of interest, wherein each processed dataset comprises information associated with a characteristic of land and/or property of a given site, said characteristic of land and/or property of a given site being determined based on analyses carried out via the in-memory object oriented processing engine for the given site, said analyses selected from the group consisting of proximity amenities analysis, house prices analysis, demographic and industrial analysis, buildings analysis, road frontage analysis, site creation analysis, environmental analysis, slope analysis, and land use analysis;
calculate in real time, via the in-memory object oriented processing engine, a gross development value (GDV) calculation for the one or more sites based, at least in part, on an analysis of one or more processed datasets performed via the in-memory object oriented processing engine for a given site;
output, via a visualization module and to be displayed via the GUI of the computing device, a visual rendering of:
an architectural visualization of potential properties, including property attributes/characteristics, proposed, by the user, to be constructed on at least one of the one or more sites located within the selected geographical area of interest, the architectural visualization comprising a three-dimensional (3D) rendering of one or more properties based, at least in part, on user input with the interface, the user input comprising user selected development template, in which the at least one of the one or more sites is determined, based on the analysis, to be able to accommodate the one or more potential properties;
information associated with a characteristic of land and/or property of a given site; and
a GDV calculation for the one or more sites; and
provide a web mapping service and output, via the visualization module and to be displayed via the GUI of the computing device, an interactive map of a geographical location, wherein a visual rendering of a geographical location comprises map data and/or imagery of the geographical location.
