SOLAR ANALYTICS BY SHADOWMAP

Gain true solar insights for PV installation on an interactive 3D map

3D Solar Analytics builds upon the first and second pillars of functionality inside Shadowmap, visualizing sunlight and shadow based on real 3D terrain and buildings, as well as enabling customization of 3D map data (and yes, you can also upload your own 3D models!). Based on these two feature sets, 3D Solar Analytics can give easy, quick and accurate evaluation of solar irradiance and solar power yield.

Why our users love Shadowmap

My photographic work is extremely time-consuming to plan. Precise research and preparation is therefore an essential part of my process. The Shadowmap solution helps me like no other software to precisely determine the lighting situation at locations all over the world and at any time of year. Even after years of using it, I am still impressed by its accuracy and intuitive controls.

Shadowmap has helped me a lot! I also repeatedly compared the position of the sun (especially the shading) with the actual situation over a period of more than 2 weeks, and it is really cool how realistic it is – I think it would help many PV planners.
