Nearmap Partners with Aurora Solar to Augment Its Solar Design Software with HD Aerial Imagery
Aurora Solar users now have access to Nearmap’s up-to-date, sub 3”
GSD imagery to design and sell solar with exact precision.
SOUTH JORDAN, Utah–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#aerialimagery—Nearmap,
a high-resolution aerial imagery provider, and Aurora
Solar, a solar sales and design software leader, today announced a
landmark partnership that allows Aurora users to access Nearmap aerial
captures of U.S. locations.
Through this collaboration, Nearmap’s up-to-date, sub 3” GSD imagery is
now available within Aurora’s software, helping solar installers design
and sell with exact precision.
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with Nearmap to provide aerial imagery
to solar installers across the country,” said Chris Hopper, CEO and
co-founder of Aurora Solar. “By integrating high-resolution imagery with
our industry-leading software, we empower solar installers to quote with
confidence—reducing the number of truck rolls required. This is the next
big step in remote solar design.”
Previously, Aurora has enabled its users to design over 1 million solar
projects, with over 60,000 projects designed in March 2018 alone. Now,
in addition to satellite imagery, Aurora customers can utilize
high-resolution and current Nearmap imagery for increased accuracy and
informed decision-making.
“We’re excited to announce this relationship because it offers a lot of
flexibility for both Nearmap and Aurora customers. The partnership
offers solutions for businesses of all sizes. Organizations can choose
from different licensing models: pay as you go, with unlimited access to
imagery, or per bundle through Aurora, which provides a more flexible
option based on the needs of the user,” said Patrick Quigley, EVP of
Nearmap U.S. In addition, existing Nearmap customers can also
authenticate their Nearmap licenses in Aurora.
Alex Chelius of Momentum Solar notes that this integration will
“significantly increase our productivity as well as accuracy.”
Through the partnership, users can:
-
Reduce costly, time-intensive on-site visits with Nearmap aerial
captures. The imagery’s detail enables professionals to measure and
design from the comfort of an office with a precision that rivals
traditional measuring methods. -
Enhance their shading analysis and remote system design processes by
utilizing high-definition images to better model sites. -
Increase the number of leads they nurture by spending less time on
each lead. Aurora users are now able to expand their coverage area
rapidly. -
Access Nearmap historical captures so users can visualize the property
through all seasons.
“Every design begins with imagery, and high-quality imagery helps
designers create permit-quality drawings and game-changing proposals,”
said JT McCook, sales consultant at Aurora Solar. “That’s
why this integration is so exciting; it allows solar installers to
create highly accurate 3D models remotely.”
