Quickstart
A short video overview of the product, with links to where to start.
A 5-minute video walkthrough of SolarLayout is in production. We'll post it here when it's ready.
The hands-on path
The fastest way to learn SolarLayout is to use it on a real KMZ. The full quickstart takes about 10 minutes:
Your first layout — step-by-step, KMZ in, finished layout out.
If you don't have a KMZ yet, start with KMZ requirements — making one in Google Earth takes about 5 minutes.
What the video will cover
When it ships, the 5-minute video will walk through:
- What SolarLayout is and who it's for (~45 sec)
- KMZ in, layout out (~90 sec) — the core workflow
- Reading your energy report (~60 sec) — DC capacity, AC capacity, P50/P90
- Exporting your bid pack (~60 sec) — PDF, KMZ, DXF
- Where to go next (~30 sec) — common follow-up tasks
A transcript will appear below the embed when the video is published — useful if you'd rather read than watch.
