Solar API menggunakan data tempat untuk menentukan jenis bangunan dan mengidentifikasi bangunan berdasarkan citra satelit. Halaman ini menjelaskan cara menentukan informasi surya bangunan mana yang ditampilkan dalam permintaan buildingInsights.
Jenis bangunan
Solar API mendukung bangunan jenis
premise. Jenis ini
menunjukkan lokasi yang telah diberi nama, biasanya bangunan atau sekumpulan bangunan dengan
nama umum.
Jenis lainnya, seperti
subpremise atau
kompleks — misalnya, bangunan terpisah yang berada di satu properti, kecuali
terdaftar sebagai premise —
tidak didukung.
Atap bangunan
Solar API mengidentifikasi penempatan panel surya atap yang optimal berdasarkan
citra satelit. Bangunan tempat tinggal, terutama atap miring, diidentifikasi dengan tingkat akurasi yang tinggi, sedangkan bangunan dengan atap datar (misalnya, bangunan apartemen atau komersial) mungkin memiliki tingkat akurasi yang bervariasi.
Jika respons
buildingInsights tidak menyertakan kolom solarPanelConfigs, berarti bangunan telah diproses dengan benar, tetapi kami tidak dapat memasang panel di atap. Hal ini dapat terjadi jika atap terlalu kecil untuk menempatkan panel atau terlalu teduh sehingga panel tidak dapat menghasilkan energi yang signifikan.
Gunakan place_id untuk merujuk ke tempat yang cocok.
Gunakan koordinat lintang dan bujur tempat dalam permintaan
buildingInsights
Solar API Anda.
Jika Solar API menemukan bangunan yang cocok, periksa apakah
place_id dalam respons buildingInsights cocok dengan place_id
dari Geocoding API atau Place Autocomplete API.
Untuk membatasi hasil ke tempat dengan jenis premise, tambahkan filter jenis tempat ke respons Geocoding API atau Places API.
Anda juga dapat menawarkan pengalaman pelengkap dengan memungkinkan pengguna memilih bangunan di peta menggunakan Maps JavaScript API. Ekstrak lintang dan bujur bangunan dari peristiwa mouse, lalu teruskan koordinat tersebut dalam permintaan buildingInsights.

It primarily supports `premise` type buildings, excluding `subpremise` types. Optimal solar panel placement is assessed, with higher accuracy for residential pitched roofs; flat roofs may vary. The API can be used by converting an address to coordinates via the Geocoding or Place Autocomplete APIs, or by using a location selected on a map. The results can be filtered to places of type premise, and the results from the building insights api can be compared to the results from the geocoding or places API.\n"],null,["# Search buildings\n\nThe Solar API uses place data to determine building type and identifies\nbuildings based on satellite imagery. This page describes how to determine which\nbuilding's solar information is returned in a\n[`buildingInsights`](/maps/documentation/solar/reference/rest/v1/buildingInsights)\nrequest.\n\nBuilding types\n--------------\n\nThe Solar API supports buildings of type\n[`premise`](/maps/documentation/places/web-service/place-types). This type\nindicates a named location, usually a building or collection of buildings with a\ncommon name.\n\nOther types, such as\n[`subpremise`](/maps/documentation/places/web-service/place-types#table-b) or\ncompounds --- for example, detached buildings located on a single property, unless\nregistered as a [`premise`](/maps/documentation/places/web-service/place-types) ---\nare **not** supported.\n\nBuilding roofs\n--------------\n\nThe Solar API identifies optimal rooftop solar panel placement based on\nsatellite imagery. Residential buildings, particularly inclined or pitched\nroofs, are identified with a high degree of accuracy, while buildings with flat\nroofs (for example, apartment or commercial buildings) may vary in accuracy.\n\nIf the\n[`buildingInsights`](/maps/documentation/solar/building-insights#example_response_object) response does not include the field `solarPanelConfigs`, the building was processed correctly, but we were unable to put panels on the roof. This may happen if the roof is too small to place panels or too shaded for panels to generate significant energy.\n| **Tip:** Based on other selection approaches, including manual user selection or a custom programmatical selection, you can use the Solar API [`dataLayers`](/maps/documentation/solar/reference/rest/v1/dataLayers) endpoint to create your own solar potential calculations and panel placement.\n\nSearching from an address\n-------------------------\n\n1. You can convert an address to latitude and longitude coordinates using the\n [Geocoding API](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding#Types) or\n [Place Autocomplete API](/maps/documentation/places/web-service/autocomplete).\n\n Use the `place_id` to refer to the matched place.\n2. Use the place latitude and longitude coordinates in your Solar API\n [`buildingInsights`](/maps/documentation/solar/reference/rest/v1/buildingInsights)\n request.\n\n - If the Solar API finds a matching building, check that the `place_id` in the `buildingInsights` response matches the `place_id` from the Geocoding API or the Place Autocomplete API.\n - To limit results to places with type `premise`, add a place type filter to Geocoding API or Places API responses. \n\n ```json\n {\n \"name\": \"buildings/ChIJh0CMPQW7j4ARLrRiVvmg6Vs\",\n \"center\": {\n \"latitude\": 37.4449739,\n \"longitude\": -122.13914659999998\n },...\n }\n ```\n\n| **Note:** Sometimes the place IDs will not match, which means the searched (lat, lng) does not resolve to the same address or building. Even if the [Geocoding\n| API](/maps/documentation/geocoding/overview) response is of granularity [`ROOFTOP`](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding#results), the `place_id` may have a type other than `premise`.\n\nYou can use the [open source sample\napp](https://solar-potential-296769475687.us-central1.run.app/) or make a\n[`buildingInsights`](/maps/documentation/solar/building-insights) request to\ncheck the `place_id` for buildings covered by the Solar API.\n\nSelecting a location on a map\n-----------------------------\n\nYou can also offer a complementary experience by enabling users to select the\nbuilding on the map using the [Maps JavaScript\nAPI](/maps/documentation/javascript/overview). Extract the building's latitude\nand longitude from the [mouse\nevent](/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/event-click-latlng), then pass in\nthose coordinates in a\n[`buildingInsights`](/maps/documentation/solar/building-insights) request."]]
