LiDAR vs Satellite Imagery: How Accurate Is AI Solar Design Really?

Lidar solar design accuracy LiDAR versus satellite imagery comparison shows satellite imagery flat top-down no height data 2D plan view eave height 3.2m peak 6.5m estimated versus LiDAR point cloud 3D elevation height and roof pitch measured 150k points roof pitch 22 degrees slope orientation 165 degrees south-facing elevation 3.0 to 6.5 meters building ground vegetation classified.

AI can design your solar system in minutes, but is it accurate? It depends on the data. Here is how LiDAR and satellite imagery each measure your roof, where each falls short, and why the best designs fuse both.
