BetaBetaDataset
To provide solar rooftop potential data (suitable rooftop area, installable capacity, estimated yearly electricity generation, and building type ) at individual building structure level for a sample area of interest in South Africa.
The dataset can be used for planning and decision-making upon further review
A zipped dataset for visualization using GIS tools and CSVs describing solar potential parameters such as capacity factors for Witbank, Ermelo, Johannesburg, Hendrina
The data was gathered by extracting building rooftop footprint polygons from very high-resolution satellite stereo imagery of 0.5m resolution
