1. Apparatus for generating a three dimensional representation based upon two dimensional image data, the apparatus comprising:

  • a processor in digital communication with one or more storage devices and executable computer code stored in the one or more storage devices and executable upon demand to cause the processor to;

    receive multiple captured image data sets of a subject identified with a real estate property parcel, wherein the image data sets comprise two dimensional image data captured at street level by multiple adjacent image capture devices comprising multiple cameras mounted on a vehicle and the multiple image data sets are captured from disparate points along one or more continuums;

    calculate a centroid of the real estate parcel;

    determine a camera orientation and position to enable accurate delivery of image data that is pointed toward the centroid of the real estate property parcel;

    determine which of the multiple image data sets are captured by an image capture device directed at the calculated centroid of the real estate property parcel;

    generate a composite two dimensional image of the subject by aligning image data sets directed at the calculated centroid of the real estate property parcel; and

    generating one or more three-dimensional models comprising one or more three-dimensional models comprising one or more polygon based models generated from a point cloud array based upon structures included in the composite two dimensional image of the subject and image data included in the composite two dimensional image of the subject.
