Updated 6 days ago 113 views

Introducing the Next Generation of S-Miles Designer

Version 2.0 marks a major milestone for S-Miles Designer.

Building on the complete solar and storage design workflow established in previous releases, V2.0 introduces AI-assisted design capabilities, enhanced design intelligence, and deeper integration with the Hoymiles ecosystem.

Our goal remains simple: help installers create professional solar projects faster, more accurately, and with less manual effort.


AI-Powered Intelligent Design

AI-Powered 3D Site Modeling & Intelligent Mapping

S-Miles Designer introduces a new generation of AI-powered site analysis and modeling technologies, helping installers quickly obtain accurate 3D site information and complete professional system designs with less manual effort.

Key capabilities include:

  • Google Solar 3D Imagery & AI-Driven 3D Modeling Automatically generate realistic 3D rooftop models from Google Solar 3D imagery, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual roof modeling.
  • Google 3D Terrain (LiDAR) Data Integration Access high-precision terrain and LiDAR point cloud data to improve site analysis and support more accurate system design.
  • Intelligent Roof Modeling Tools Accelerate roof creation with multiple AI-assisted tools, including Automatic Roof Detection, Automatic Roof Ridge, Lift Ridge, and Flatten Roof.
  • AI Satellite Image Enhancement Powered by advanced AI image enhancement technology, transform low-resolution or unclear satellite maps into clearer and more usable design backgrounds.

Note: Some features depend on the availability and coverage of Google 3D data. Actual functionality may vary depending on project location.
