Normalized Inverter Yield Analysis
Raptor Maps‘ new Production Analytics for inverters feature substantially enhances the company’s flagship Raptor Solar software-as-a-service (SaaS) product. The update enriches the data and insights available in Raptor Solar, which advances Raptor Maps’ mission of helping the solar industry scale. Now you can easily analyze trends in a flash and pinpoint asset degradation.
Leveraging Raptor Solar’s integrations with leading monitoring systems, Production Analytics offers a visualization of inverter performance, allowing for rapid trend analysis and quick identification of asset degradation. By combining the power of aerial inspection results with a normalized view of power production, you’ll have the upper hand in prioritizing maintenance activities. Maintenance can be dispatched more swiftly after underperformance is spotted via Production Analytics and a cause is identified in an inspection report, increasing power production in the short and long term.
Production Analytics also provides a fresh spin on classic visualizations by showing inverter yield compared to other inverters on the same site at the same time. Traditional visualizations have simply shown output data, which is highly variable depending on weather and time of day. Our new comparative view, by contrast, identifies long-running performance trends regardless of weather patterns or outages onsite. Additionally, the view can be generated with time-series data from any DAS provider–whether via one-click integrations with industry leaders or manual data upload to Raptor Solar.
Bridge the gap between data sets through the digital twin
Historically, solar stakeholders have struggled to connect power output data, with high temporal granularity but low spatial granularity, with aerial inspection data, which has the opposite attributes. That gap is now bridged with this update.
Raptor Maps’ Production Analytics function is built on top of existing integrations with leading DAS/SCADA providers, allowing for a normalized view of all power data from any site, regardless of the sensors deployed.

Combined with Raptor Maps’ geospatial digital twin, there is now a holistic way of assessing site health, from hardware condition to observed power generation. Issues identified during aerial inspections can now be easily cross-referenced with performance numbers, strengthening the feedback loop between inspections, remediation activities, and increased revenue.
Use Production Analytics to unlock the true value of the Raptor Solar platform with overlaid site data and power production stats.
