This Shedding Light section, in my opinion is a diamond in the rough. It’s one of the big differentiators of the site from other “enter your data, we’ll show you the results” sites.
What’s the purpose of the Shedding Light Section?
- We’re hoping that this is the nucleus of a ground-swell. Where more and more buildings get modeled and we begin to see, in real detail, the potential solar can have.
- It’s where you can see what others have done. Specifically if you’re doing a complex array of an office building roof, you can view other commercial models and see how they were drawn.
What is the Shedding Light Section?
- It’s where all the saved solar array models (RoofRays) are made available.
- Did you know you could save any previously created RoofRay as a “Favorite” for your own account.
- Did you notice on some RoofRays, something like “2 Additional Roofrays” right under the specs for this model. That means there’s additional models for that same property. It’s possible that you might model a home or building, and someone else might do a slightly different set of arrays. In this case, the system will tell you there’s more than one model at the same location.
- Have you noticed the “by user” with a clickable screen-name after it underneath the name of each RoofRay. We believe there will be some advocates that desire to map full neighborhoods, or every Wal Mart in some city. They not only should be recognized, by you may wish to follow them along and see what they’ve done. By clicking the screen-name, the list will be filtered to just show RoofRays done by that user.
- How about the – “Still Dream’n”. Click this if an actual solar array has been installed at this location – and you can even enter the Installer – to give them recognition.
So check out the Shedding Light section and start shedding some of your own.
