California coverage · Region
Southern California
The largest market, and the best building-height data in California.
Designing in the Southern California
Southern California counties fly their own LiDAR and publish the results, so this is where a base map arrives with measured building heights rather than a nominal box — LA County’s LARIAC, Orange County’s ridge-and-mean heights, San Diego’s LiDAR-derived outlines. It is also the region where water budgets bite hardest: MWELO compliance and turf-replacement rebates are a routine part of the scope rather than an afterthought.
6 counties, guide by guide
Each guide states exactly what resolves in that county, every layer cited to its source.
Setbacks, town by town
8 Southern California jurisdictions have their setback table transcribed from the adopted code. 2 have passed independent review, so their envelope is drawn on the plan; the rest ship cited on the export with an explicit “unverified” advisory and no lines.

Fire, in the Southern California
Fire hazard here is a design constraint at the metropolitan scale. Orange County adds fuel-modification zones on top of the state maps, San Diego enforces a 50-ft Zone 1, and the 2024–25 CAL FIRE remap pulled new ground into designated zones across the region.
