<div>I was thinking the same thing on the "hot-spots" functionality the other day. I've just added that now. There's now a layer chooser, allowing choice between "Comparison" (as before) and "FiT", which colours between the least and most installations according
to the FiT register in that local authority.</div>
<br>
<div>I'll try to address the other points as I get time -- all good points.</div>
<br>
<div>Updated version should appear online over the next few minutes.</div>

<div>
<div>A few other things:</div>
</div>
<ul>
<li>
<div>In practice we have relatively little mapped, so identifying 'hot-spot' LSOAs quickly would be very useful. I just had a browse around and found a few with around 50 FIT installations around the village of Selston (Ashfield District). I haven't got them
all, but am pleased to have added 125 quickly. I still only managed to find 32 in one LSOA when the fit installation count is 51: I suspect this is related to imagery date, rather than me missing obvious ones. The 50 installation threshold is a pretty high
percentage of properties and represents good bang for buck.</div>
</li><li>
<div>For the same reason sortable listings would be nice (also true on Robert's various pages).</div>
</li><li>
<div>Cornwall has a large number (17k+), finding hotspots in a big county is very useful.</div>
</li><li>
<div>From a QA viewpoint a count of location=roof or generator:location=roof might be useful as well. All the FIT installs are likely to be of this type.</div>
</li></ul>

<div>Hi Gregory,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>I suspect this does not currently take account of roof-top solar power mapped as nodes. My last tally for Nottingham is a total of 4,385 solar PV generators (3,760 mapped as nodes, 625 as ways), compared with your total of 621. I added solar panels on
3 houses on Saturday (one with 2 .generators because they face in different directions). It would be massively helpful if nodes could be added.</div>
<br>
</div>
<div>In general it is much, much easier to map roof top solar as nodes, perhaps with an estimate of the number of modules in the panel(currently we use generator:solar:modules for this). Once one has one's eye in for a particular area and sets of imagery it's
best to capture the data as quickly as possible. Mapping panels as areas is more complex, for relatively small gain. I did this for a single area initially, and now tend to do it in two cases: a) larger panels on schools, commercial buildings etc; and b) newly
observed panels noticed as part of general surveying or just casually. The choice of which to do will depend on panel density in a neighbourhood, and whether buildings are already mapped.</div>

<div>All,</div>

<div>I've also been working on a comparison tool for OSM solar mapping, as compared with the FiT register. I've just placed an initial version here:</div>
<br>
<div>
<div>
<div><a href="https://link.getmailspring.com/link/9144B288-8B95-41E3-89BB-5774019241EF@getmailspring.com/0?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fosm.gregorywilliams.me.uk%2Fsolar&recipient=dGFsay1nYkBvcGVuc3RyZWV0bWFwLm9yZw%3D%3D" title="https://link.getmailspring.com/link/9144B288-8B95-41E3-89BB-5774019241EF@getmailspring.com/0?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fosm.gregorywilliams.me.uk%2Fsolar&recipient=dGFsay1nYkBvcGVuc3RyZWV0bWFwLm9yZw%3D%3D">http://osm.gregorywilliams.me.uk/solar</a></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>My version compares at LLSOA level and then aggregates them up to their local authorities and the whole country. It's been pretty much inspired by Robert Whittaker and Greg RS's ever-useful comparison tools. It's functional, but still needs some polish.
Known issues include:</div>
<br>
<ul>
<li>
<div>Currently updated manually. I currently hope to update every few days, and eventually daily;</div>
</li><li>
<div>The tool differentiates between solar plants and generators, and avoids counting individual generators in a plant. Currently, though, it counts plants towards completeness, even though it's likely that these are solar farms in excess of the size used in
the FiT register;</div>
</li><li>
<div>Only the number of installations is used for comparison at present, not the electricity output;</div>
</li><li>
<div>There are only maps on the local authority pages at the moment, not on the country summary page.</div>
</li></ul>
<br>
<div>I aim to add some more functionality to the site over the next few days and weeks.</div>

<div>There's also a chance that we can get this at higher granularity (for</div>
<div>England and Wales) at least, by using LSOAs rather than postcode</div>
<div>districts. Another person has said they'll have a go at merging the</div>
<div>two granularities.</div>

<div>Hi</div>
<br>
<div>Related to the idea of solar panel mapping, I've had a request for</div>
<div>info about what sort of software tools might help support this work.</div>
<div>We might be using some of the familiar tools (e.g. streetcomplete,</div>
<div>openinframap, ... even tasking manager?).</div>
<br>
<div>It'd be useful to have something like</div>
<div>completeness-by-postcode-district. Unlike Robert's postbox tools, we</div>
<div>don't have any official ID numbers for the items-to-map, we just have</div>
<div>some official stats (to be taken with a pinch of salt) about how many</div>
<div>are in each postcode district - but still, that could be a start.</div>
<br>
<div>I'd also be interested in some tool that predicts where to look, which</div>
<div>might be based on analysing imagery, but perhaps more realistically</div>
<div>based on some mix of heuristics and official data.</div>
<br>
<div>Any thoughts?</div>
