Build your portfolio
Through the Insolation web console, you can search for properties of interest, and then add them to your listings.
Find an address
- Search for your property on the map with rooftop accurate address search
High resolution satellite maps
- Insolation uses Google Maps for excellent quality satellite imagery available at high zoom levels, essential for identifying specific buildings and features
Customize your report
The tone and emphasis of each listing will differ depending on the property and your audience. Insolation gives you the tools to customize your reports as best for your clients.
Custom title and subtitles
- Report titles and subtitles can be customized to set exactly the right tone.
Summary comments
- Enter optional comments to highlight the key points and takeaways for readers.
Draw an outline
Define 'aspects' for the property simply by drawing its outline on the map. Each aspect defines a direction of natural light that you can use in the report.
Map-based drawing tools
- Draw either a closed shape (polygon) to outline the buildings walls, or an open polyline to define just those that matter.
Simple editing
- Need to make a change? No problem - you can edit aspects at any time by adjusting the points on the map, or adding new corners.
Shine a light
Choose from a variety of report components to tell the story of sunlight and shade for your property.
Add report components
- Insolation includes a variety of configurable report components designed to address your clients's most common questions and concerns. You can add multiple components to each report.
Sun and shade
- Choose from Annual, Monthly, or Date-specific components. Each component can be configured to report on a specific aspect of the property.
Show the world
Subscribers on the Reporter plan can publish reports to make them accessible by clients via the public internet.
Preview your report
- Prior to publishing, you can preview a report as it will appear publicly. You can also show or hide individual report components either before or after publication, making changes worry-free.
Publish your work
- When you're happy, publish your report to make it immediately available to viewers. And, or course, you can unpublish at any time too.
