Creating a simulation on a TIFF sheet

[emily.denz]

Hello,

I am constructing a PVsyst simulation with a topographic TIFF sheet and a Google Maps image in the background.

There seems to be an error, as you can see in the picture.

This concerns a hill that is being covered.

What exactly does the error message mean, and what can I do to resolve it?

Thank you.

Hello,

Averaged orientations have a fixed tolerance on the maximum angles difference between the fields planes and the orientation's tilt and azimuth.

This means for example that the field #12175 in your scene has a difference of 8.4° with its averaged orientation. When this value is above a certain threshold, PVsysts considers that the computations will be less relevant.

You have 2 options:

- move some fields in a new orientation: select fields in the Scene objects list, right click on the selection and click on 'Create orientation from the selection'

- increase the tolerance 'Maximum orient. difference for defining average (spread) orientation' in 'Other limitations' tab of the project settings

Thank you very much, that is the answer I needed.
