An automation assisted elevation certificate production system includes a user computer device, an electronic elevation certificate database storing electronic elevation certificate records associated with respective real property structures and an elevation certificate application. The elevation certificate application is configured to receive address information associated with a real property, determine a parcel boundary associated with the received address information, receive elevation data corresponding to an area within the parcel boundary, determine a boundary for a structure within the parcel boundary, and determine a buffer boundary. The elevation certificate application is further configured to determine a highest adjacent grade (HAG) and a lowest adjacent grade (LAG), based on a portion of the received elevation data corresponding to an area defined between the structure boundary and the buffer boundary, and to automatically input the highest adjacent grade (HAG) and lowest adjacent grade (LAG) into an electronic elevation certificate record, and store the electronic elevation certificate record.
