Solar Design Tools That Put Accuracy First
Say goodbye to costly redesigns and call-offs on installation day with Scanifly’s unique solar design software.
Simplify Solar Design Without Sacrificing Accuracy
Scanifly’s drone-based modeling platform allows PV designers to create precise, photo-realistic system layouts. With Scanifly, PV system designers plan array layouts, forecast production, export CAD files, and generate shading analyses approved by all major regulatory bodies and lenders.
Perfect Accuracy
No Redesigns
Customizable Tools
No Guesswork
Design Customizable Layouts
Scanifly makes it simple to create & modify roof outlines, keepout zones, and array layouts. Users automatically determine tilt, azimuth, and roof measurements. Once arrays are placed, select any module type, design in portrait or landscape (or both!), and include adjustable array spacing across a system.
Simulate Approved
Shading Analysis
Scanifly helps designers conduct shading analysis across large and complex surfaces. Using its proprietary solar access viewshed technology, each analysis generates Annual Solar Access (ASA), Tilt and Orientation Factor (TOF), and Total Solar Resource Factor (TSRF) calculations.
Export From Scanifly to AutoCAD or SketchUp
Scanifly offers a variety of CAD exports, including parallel plane projection, top-down 2D, and 3D options. Now, solar designers can seamlessly integrate their designs into construction plan sets.
Simulate Solar Production
Leveraging NREL’s PVWatts API, users can estimate production for each array, inclusive of various loss factors and shading parameters. Scanifly users can simulate energy production and compare estimates to a property’s on-site consumption trends.
Design Tools Trusted By the Solar Industry
“Scanifly is a truly unique and valuable tool in our solar tool belt that lets us design in a way that was previously not possible. The look on customers faces when they see their house modeled with solar panels is absolutely priceless.”
