Harnessing Environmental Data for a Greener Future
Solar Potential
Evaluate the solar energy potential of specific buildings. Get an hourly breakdown of sunlight and shade on a roof, based on year-round weather data. Create detailed installation plans using highly-accurate images of each customer’s roof.
Air Quality
Provide air quality data and insights that help people reduce their exposure to pollution. Display detailed information about pollution including the dominant pollutant, concentrations, sources and effects.
Insights into the Built Environment
Gather key rooftop data, like measurements, elevation, shading, and building outlines. Design solar panel arrays faster with suggested placements that focus on the sunniest parts of the roof.
