About

Ratio.City built a 3D geospatial model of every property in Toronto — over half a million of them — layered with zoning, allowable heights, existing use and transit proximity, then made it searchable. That reversed the usual question: instead of asking whether a tower fits one parking lot, a developer could ask which parking lots fit the tower. Esri Canada acquired it in 2023.
