The first version of SolarMeter app for iPhone and iPad users is available on the App Store now. The similar application is also available for Android devices from Google Play.
The application helps people, interested in using free source of energy – sunlight, to check solar potential of their roof or land, how much solar power is available at specific location throughout the year, to estimate how much energy a photo-voltaic system is able to produce per month or year.
- Real-time solar power calculation based on current location, panel/device orientation and panel/device tilt**
- Solar Power and Energy calculation for different periods of time: day, month, year
- Ideal (calculated) and experimental statistical solar data (offline) available
- Sensor based inputs for orientation and tilt
- Current location search using GPS and Network
- Graph/Plot 2D data presentation
- Solar panel efficiency control
- Bill and Saving estimation based on user input (energy monthly or annual consumption).
- Roof tilt angle measurement
- Roof area calculation based on Planimeter* measurements
- Metric and Imperial units
* the app has to installed to be able to use it for measurements.
** Make sure your Time Zone settings are correct and you use it in portrait orientation.
