Scanifly integrates Nearmap

Scanifly, a solar software for the design, field, permitting, and operations stages of a solar project, announced integrations with a variety of remote data sources as part of its new preliminary design solution, Scanifly Prelim.️

Scanifly Prelim offers Contractors a budget-conscious remote design solution, with all the features of Scanifly3D, including the ability to create a PV layout, production estimate, and shading analysis within minutes.

The Prelim product is particularly useful for Contractors who have their internal proposal and financing tools or are seeking to consolidate their design solutions, and broader software stack, onto one platform.

To further enhance the quality of preliminary designs, Scanifly added Nearmap’s leading aerial data coverage, as well as imagery from well-known satellite imagery providers Google Maps, Bing, and Mapbox.

Scanifly also incorporated the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) publicly available LiDAR data. The “light detecting and ranging” data is commonly used as a reference for modeling a site and remotely estimating a project’s shading.
