Eric Van Laar

Associate at Arup, a global engineering and design consultancy. Day job is infrastructure and land development projects in PA. Side project: I'm building a tool that uses satellite imagery to detect construction, road cuts, and land changes across all 67 PA counties. One statewide view of what's happening on the ground — something that doesn't exist when every municipality runs its own permit system. Here to learn from investors who actually know the PA market. I want to know if this data is useful to people on the ground — what would you actually do with it? Demo: subgrade.io/real-estate
