Site Selection
Employ comprehensive and up-to-date geospatial analytics to select the most optimal site for your assets’ location
Understand solar and wind output geospatial potential of the chosen area
Analyse buildings' rooftop potential, the characteristics of the land and the proximity to T&D infrastructure
Reduce initial investment and operation costs and improve ROI of new sites development
Site Selection Analytics is a Crucial Factor in Renewable Energy Projects Success
In the utility, infrastructure and renewable facilities sector, the success of any project starts with selecting the right site.
To maximise output and minimise risk, it is crucial to understand the site’s physical characteristics, from land coverage and land use to human activities nearby, and local environmental factors.
Asset planning managers can leverage a range of metrics to gain a complete picture to evaluate the site and determine whether it is an appropriate spot to invest or whether it makes sense to search for a more advantageous one.
Factors such as access to sunlight, land availability and biodiversity impact should be considered for solar site selection.
Similarly, site selection for wind turbines requires a detailed analysis of a range of factors, including wind speed and direction, topography, and potential impact on ecosystems.
Our product leverages remote satellite data and machine learning algorithms and is a powerful tool for renewable energy developers.
By analysing a range of factors, our product helps identify the most promising locations for solar, wind, and other green energy projects, ensuring their long-term sustainability and financial success. Whether you’re a renewable energy developer or an infrastructure asset planning manager, our product can help you make better-informed decisions.

Behind the Spottitt MF Curtains: Role of Machine Learning in Analyzing Satellite Imagery
Spottitt is known for utilising satellite data to offer infrastructure owners valuable insights into the diverse external risks affecting their assets. But how precisely do we derive these insights from satellite imagery? The answer is – machine learning, and today we’re inviting you behind the curtains of our product to unveil the whole process.
Spottitt Metrics Factory Advances to the Next Level
As more organizations turned to Spottitt for monitoring growing numbers of assets, we recognized that the traditional geospatial platform’s map view, which was effective for small-scale monitoring, became cumbersome when dealing with larger datasets. So, we embarked on the development of Spottitt Metrics Factory. Since its beta launch in late 2022, ten organizations from around the world have been delighting in the ability to view and interact with their asset monitoring data using the product.
Geospatial Data for Selecting Optimal Renewable Energy Sites
Solar and wind power plants have become increasingly important as the world continues to move towards renewable energy sources. However, choosing the right location for these power plants can be a complex process involving various factors, from available land and solar irradiation to wind speeds and topography.
