Overview
Raptor Maps provides a software platform for solar asset management. It offers a cloud-based SaaS platform called Raptor Solar that covers the full lifecycle of solar PV assets—from financing and construction to operations. The product works by ingesting data from drones, planes, satellites, and other sources, then using digital twins, aerial thermal inspections, and machine learning to produce analytics that identify, classify, and prioritize anomalies in solar systems. This helps asset owners, O&M teams, EPCs, and financiers to boost power production, reduce risks, and lower operating costs. Raptor Maps differentiates itself through end-to-end lifecycle coverage, data fusion from multiple sources (inverters, pyranometers, weather), STC normalization to align with OEM warranties, and a network of drone service providers for global inspection data capture. Its goal is to be a data-driven partner that optimizes solar PV assets and supports stakeholders in the solar energy sector.
