I am searching for building/property data which include building height, building area, lot size, and building type classifications(preferably as complete as possible). I am working on an Earthquake Model for highly urbanized locations, especially those around fault lines. I would greatly appreciate the help. Thank you!

The only thing that even comes close AFAIK is the national cadastre. |

Maybe a possible approach few cities have 3d models for many of their buildings in google earth. Perhaps you can check whether these can be downloaded and used in another tool? http://www.google.com/sketchup/3dwh/index.html CityGML is an approach to provide such a data in a more standardized way, but I don't think they have much data available. http://www.citygmlwiki.org/index.php/Main_Page |

There was a previous question just regarding building data. In the USA, Massachusetts has both building data and lot outlines (I'm not sure about building type classifications). I would also explore OpenStreetMap as perhaps this data exists for some countries. |
