On-site solar assessment with Azimutis (57 s)

Use cases during site surveys

Site survey before quotation

Quickly qualify a site, with or without shading.

Clear site (no shading)

No Shading mode: production estimate and key indicators for a fast PV assessment.

Constrained / shaded site

Solar shading analysis: horizon profile, near shading, far shading, sun path diagram and more realistic shading losses.

Client file and engineering study

PDF report and exports for client documentation and further engineering work.

Why choose Azimutis?

Fast and reliable on-site solar assessment

Azimutis is designed for site surveys and PV feasibility assessments. On site, with or without shading, the app helps you quickly assess the real solar potential and document your field work: shading profile, horizon profile, solar access and first solar irradiance analysis.

In just a few minutes, you get directly usable results: production estimates, economic and environmental indicators, feasibility assessment, first PV system sizing assumptions and a PDF report for your project files.

The goal: complete the core assessment before leaving the site, while reducing office post-processing and data re-entry.

Reliability of field measurements

Smartphone, tablet: how do you ensure measurement quality?

Horizon profile surveys performed with Azimutis do not rely only on raw data from the smartphone or tablet sensors.

The app includes calibration mechanisms, consistency checks and correction algorithms designed to improve the quality of azimuth and elevation measurements captured in the field.

Survey points remain fully checkable and editable directly in the app.

Built-in calibration

Calibration tools help check measurement quality before and during the survey.

Consistency checks

Automatic checks verify the consistency of data captured in the field.

Correction algorithms

Processing designed to reduce some errors linked to device sensors.

Manual adjustment

Captured points can be checked, corrected and refined directly in the app.

Usable solar analyses, reports and data

Azimutis turns site surveys into directly usable results for your studies and documentation. The data collected on site allows you to quickly analyze real solar potential, support preliminary PV design and feed the next engineering steps.

Outputs include:

Solar analyses: solar irradiance analysis, production estimates, economic and environmental indicators
Shading analysis: near shading, far shading, horizon profile and sun path diagram
PDF report ready to be attached to a client file or site survey report
Technical exports: CSV (PVsyst…), TXT (PVGIS), HOR (PV*SOL, HelioScope)

The goal is to maintain continuity from site survey to office work: less data re-entry, more reliable inputs for modeling, site comparison and informed decision-making.

Horizon profile surveys for photovoltaic studies

Azimutis is a professional horizon profile survey app designed for PV installers, engineering firms, architects, trainers and energy professionals.

The app can be used to capture horizon profiles on site, generate usable horizon profile data for PV planning software, and analyze the impact of shading on solar potential and photovoltaic production.

FAQ

Are measurements made with a smartphone reliable?

Azimutis uses the device sensors to measure obstacle azimuth and elevation.

The app also includes calibration mechanisms, consistency checks and correction algorithms designed to improve the quality of field measurements.

Survey points can be checked and adjusted directly in the app before export.

What is a horizon profile survey?

A horizon profile survey measures the obstacles around a site in order to assess their impact on available solar exposure.

This data can be used to estimate shading losses and improve preliminary PV assessments.

What is a horizon profile used for?

The horizon profile represents the obstacles visible from a given location.

It helps analyze when the sun is blocked by buildings, trees or terrain and assess their impact on photovoltaic production.
