This project aims to improve the accuracy of existing solar energy databases and provide decision-making tools for policy planners and consulting companies. It will generate local atlases to assess the potential of solar energy in specific areas of interest, integrating various geographical information. The project will follow GEOSS recommendations on interoperability and develop replicable and scientifically-validated methods for creating such atlases.

GEOSS AIP-5Architecture Implementation Pilot, Phase 5 - Energy Session KO Summary Lionel Ménard - Session Lead - MINES ParisTech Kick-off Meeting May 2012
Participants • Lucien Wald (MINES ParisTech) • Larry Mc Govern (INCOSE) • Hervé Caumont (Terradue) • Steve Browdy (OMSTech) • George Percival (OGC) • Lionel Menard (MINES ParisTech)
The proposed Energy scenario: “Generation of local atlases for decision-support in solar energy policy planning and private investment”
Issues tackledTargeted users: Policy planners, consulting companiesDecision making – Potential Area of Interest – Precise Site selection • Improve accuracy from existing databases to assess the potential of solar energy in a focused area of interest (improvement range from 3 km to 200 m) • Relate this information to other types of geographical information, e.g., physical and administrative • Provide computer-aided method for decision making, (eg. desktop or Web based GIS applications) • Cope with GEOSS recommendations on Interoperability • Develop a replicable and scientifically-validated methods for creation of such atlases within the European FP7 funded ENDORSE project (GEOSS 2012-2015 EN-01 Contribution).
