[RE-wrenches] Drawing Programs

[Andrew Truitt]

Aaron - There are a number of cool PV-specific tools that have GIS-aided
rendering functionality along with features like shade analysis, production
estimation, and automated line diagram and BoM generation.  My 2 favorites
are Helioscope and Aurora.



For a brighter energy future,

"Don't get me wrong: I love nuclear energy! It's just that I prefer fusion
to fission. And it just so happens that there's an enormous fusion reactor
safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could
ever use in just about 8 minutes. And it's wireless!"

~William McDonough
