Athens Solar Cadastre
Description
This solar cadastre tool (https://solea.gr/athens-solar-cadastre/) provides an interactive representation of the rooftop solar photovoltaic energy potential (in Wh/m2) for the city of Athens in Greece. It simulates the three-dimensional ray tracing and shadow casting in a hybrid mode (real-time & climatological) for smart energy distribution management and urban planning by exploiting Copernicus and SAFNWC data, fast radiative transfer models, advanced graphic creation platforms and cloud supercomputing.
Among others, this cadastre was utilised during the EIFFEL Project (funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No. 101003518) for providing the rooftop solar photovoltaic energy potential layer in the web application created for the Pilot on Urban Sustainability in support of the Region of Attica.
