The cost (credits) for a takeoff order on SiteRecon is calculated using three components:

1. Standard Order Processing Fee

This is a flat fee charged per order for using SiteRecon’s services.

Cost: $3 per order

2. Property Measurement Fee

This fee depends on the area of the property and the number of features selected for measurement.

• Up to 4 acres: $0.50 per acre, per feature
• Above 4 acres: $0.25 per acre, per feature

3. Imagery Fee (Nearmap Access)

An additional fee is charged when using Nearmap imagery.

• Up to 4 acres: $0.50 per acre
• Above 4 acres: $0.25 per acre

Example Calculation

Scenario: 5-acre property with 2 features selected.

• Standard Order Processing Fee: $3.00
• Measurement Fee: 5 acres × 2 features × $0.25 = $2.50
• Imagery Fee: 5 acres × $0.25 = $1.25

Total Cost = $3.00 + $2.50 + $1.25 = $6.75
