We will show you where to examine your project details and how to download or change horizon data.

Prospect project details

To access details of your Prospect project, navigate to the Projects page, locate the project in the projects list, and click it. If you have many projects in your portfolio, you can use filters or search the project using the search bar.

Project overview

Project overview is the default page that shows when you open a project. It provides a brief overview of the project’s yearly GTI (Goobal tilted irradiation) and specific PVOUT (photovoltaic output) averages, PR (performance ratio), and air temperature.

Additionally, there is a project info tab with all your project details, PV system configuration details and summary of solar radiation and meteorological data at the given location. The non-chart tabs offer links to additional details or configurations, respectively.

Project info

Project info page offers detailed information about your project location and horizon data. Additionally, it provides information about day length and solar zenith angle at the given location.

The main project info tab provides detailed information about the project’s location parameters such as address, GPS coordinates, elevation, population density, and more.

The map tab serves as a quick reference to see the projects location and its surroundings. You can expand the map using the “Show on map” link.

Project horizon data

The Project info section also includes project horizon data and sunpath. The horizon is calculated using Solargis horizon shading data by default.

If you have local horizon data from 3rd party sources, you can edit the default horizon and add your acquired values.

You will be redirected to the horizon modification page.

  1. Add your custom values in the provided format.

  2. Alternatively, you can draw the horizon directly to the diagram (gray line).

  3. Use the revert button to return to default values.

  4. Export horizon data to HOR file if required.

When finished, click the “Save” button to save the changes.

Day length and solar zenith angle

The last chart provided on the Project info page is Day length and solar zenith angle. Here you can examine day lengths and zenit angles at the given location throughout the year. This may help you to determine the optimal panel orientation and tilt.
