GLAES

GLAES is a framework for conducting land eligibility analyses and is designed to easily incorporate disparate geospatial information from a variety of sources into a unified solution. The main purpose of GLAES is performing land eligibility analyses which are used to determine which areas within a region are deemed eligible for distributed renewable energy ressources, such as onshore wind and open-field solar parks.
