Solar installation photos

Geo-tagged photos of rooftop solar installations

Rooftop solar programmes, such as India’s PM Surya Ghar, ask for a geo-tagged photograph of the installation showing the modules with location, latitude, longitude and timestamp. GPS Map Camera puts all of that on the photo in one shot.

What a good installation photo shows

Stand back far enough that all installed modules are clearly visible. Wait for the GPS chip to read “Ready” with a small accuracy figure before you shoot — on a rooftop with open sky that takes a few seconds.

Below-the-photo stamp

Use “Below the photo” so the stamp never covers panels. The full frame stays visible and the stamp sits on its own strip.

Questions about solar installation photos

Does the photo include latitude, longitude and timestamp?

Yes. Coordinates, address, date and time are on the image and the position is also saved in the photo’s EXIF data.

Is this the official app of the scheme?

No. GPS Map Camera is an independent app. It creates geo-tagged photos; always follow the upload rules of the portal or DISCOM you report to.
