Abstract
A system for determining a viable area automatically and accurately includes an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive location information. The processor is configured to determine multi-view imagery data based on the location information, to determine a point cloud using the multi-view imagery data, determine one or more features using the point cloud, determine viable area using the one or more features, and determine a solar irradiance of the viable area.
Claims16
A system for determining a viable area, comprising:
- an interface configured to:
- receive location information;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine multi-view imagery data based on the location information;
- determine a point cloud using the multi-view imagery data;
- determine one or more features using the point cloud;
- determine a viable area using the one or more features;
- and
- determine solar irradiance of the viable area.
A method for determining a viable area, comprising:
- receive location information;
- determine, using a processor, multi-view imagery data based on the location information;
- determine point cloud using the multi-view imagery data;
- extract one or more features using the point cloud;
- determine a viable area using the one or more features;
- and
- determine solar irradiance of the viable area.
A computer program product for determining a viable area, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
- receive location information;
- determine, using a processor, multi-view imagery data based on the location information;
- determine point cloud using the multi-view imagery data;
- extract one or more features using the point cloud;
- determine a viable area using the one or more features;
- and
- determine solar irradiance of the viable area.
