List of available CAMA

Software name	Appraisal method	Features	Process
Spatialest	-MRA -Comparable sales analysis	-Powerful EDA, -Addresses multi-collinearity problem -Integration with Google Earth -Simple spatial queries Interpolations -Using GIS to choose comparables: location and similarity -Outlier analysis -Application can work over web -Interface based on the ArcGIS(VB+ESRI engine)	The new process is a method of generating an estimate of property value using comparable sales information, intelligent property attribute comparison and proximity: -Determine an appropriate local selection distance from the data using Variography. -Generate a similarity matrix for the pre-defined geographical range. -Similar properties are selected -Aggregated value (the estimate) is generated -Calibrations applied using matrix score, ratios or both -Metadata on parameters and estimates recorded in database
Appraisal Vision	-MRA -Comparable sales	-interface based on VB+Oracle 9i+Mapobjects(ESRI) -Choosing comparables based on user defined and spatial info can be incorporated -Cost, Income and market valuation - Simple spatial queries -Communication with SPSS(therefore does not have EDA) -Can publish result over web -Mobile option -Condo unit mass update feature -6 different valuation techniques available for final value including regression - Taxpayer Assistance	-The product supports all three approaches to value (Cost, Market, and Income). The Cost sub-system allows the user to construct custom valuation algorithms. - The Market sub-system includes such methodologies as true, non-constrained, multiple regression analysis (see below), as well as a comparable sales analysis methodology that locates comparables using user defined parameters that can include spatial information. - A Personal Property module is included with the product. This product accommodates many types of personal property including those which are particular to an individual assessing jurisdiction
Cci Realware Geoware FieldWare CollectWare	-Multiple Regression - Auto Comparable Selection	- .NET-based solution framework -Browser-based interface map (Geoware) - based on ESRI mapping technologies -Simple spatial queries(Geoware) -Mobile data collection(Fieldware) -Oracle Database (Fieldware) - Versioning enables users to track and review all property at any specific historical point in time(Realware) -Connection to tax (Collectware): not sure if it assesses specifically for the tax….	Fair and equitable values are produced automatically in mass with all approaches to valuation (cost, market, income)
CUSTOMCAMA Tools	-MRA tool -Sales ratio analysis (SRA) tool	- only completely customizable CAMA -Data entry and maintenance -Tax roll processing -Condo valuation and management -Application works the web and GIS (ESRI enabled) also mobile -The environment is not based on GIS -In MRA provides GOFT and other techniques to evaluate the regression -No integrated EDA but can read SPSS results(MRA) - Time adjust sales at flexible intervals(ratio analysis) -Stratify groups of parcels with your choice of variable(ratio analysis) - Select your valuation method for analysis (ratio analysis) - Satisfies the USPAP requirement for cost based appraisal(MRA)	- By running a series of regressions with different independent variables, it is possible to determine which factors best influence and represent property value. These factors can then be combined into a model to validate other properties with similar characteristics to predict market values of properties. Comparing these predicted market values with appraised values can confirm the valuation techniques. -By being able to create different models for different types of construction in different areas, you can fine-tune your models to accurately predict market values.
