Solesca releases design platform update featuring 3D terrain modeling
Solar Builder · Oct 20
What happened
Commercial and community solar design platform Solesca has released version 2 of its proprietary software. The update introduces 3D terrain modeling capabilities for project layouts. Complete details on other new features were not provided in the truncated release notice.
Why it matters
Terrain modeling tools help developers and EPCs identify civil engineering risks and grading requirements earlier in project development. Incorporating 3D topographic data into initial layouts can improve the precision of layout design and production estimates on uneven parcels. Asset teams will need to assess how the new tool compares to established design software once full specifications are accessible.
