Ideally, something that means to appraise or assess value from a distance.
I don't think there is going to be such a word.
But something similar, like to assess a situation, or to assess risk could be close analogues for what I want. Thanks.

Consider changing the phrase close to it in your title to the word similar so that the afar/close relationship doesn't make the word it mean the thing assessed.

@Lawrence my warped humour which gets me into trouble liked it as it's punny. It should catch an eye or three.

It might clarify things a bit if you were to explain what you mean by 'distance.' Is that geographic, psychological or visual (and so on) distance?

Remote assessment
About 73,900 results of which "afar" (About 448 results) mainly in the remote fields of medicine.
However for realty we also see
Remote Valuation
About 3,850 results but 0 results with "afar" (guess it's implied)
good, but that is two words.

@lbf Agreed but I did not want to be pilloried for suggesting a new single one as those are all trademarked (or should be) My best suggestion would be distogrammetry as google give me zero hits :-)

Assuming those numbers are from Google search you should remove them and use a tool intended for that purpose (e.g. an Ngram tool). Google search gives an estimate that is always several orders of magnitude off. See here.

@Laurel I agreed google should be discouraged and those values are not a true filtered indicator, however due to security google wont let me build ngrams So as a very simple relative head count their total is all I can access. I was cautious to use the filtered thousands result not the millions of unfiltered hits
