I hear peter parker (spiderman) is good at that kind of thing…sorry i couldn't help myself. Wish i could help but I'm not into roof tops, my best advice is get a half decent tripod and a half decent mate to go with.

High ones usually work the best...

But in all seriousness, find a building you want to get some views from and do some research in to the site etc.

Yeah, i always like to check out the site on street view, and then do a lap of the perimeter in daylight before going later at light.
And in regard to the photography make sure you have a tripod and shoot on longer (1 second +) exposure and as low ISO as possible to avoid grain.
And never be complacent when your on the top of a structure. Always think through every movement you make.
And have fun
