Site Management

Learn how to effectively manage your project sites in Weather Shield, from creation to monitoring and maintenance.

Site Types

Weather Shield supports various types of energy production sites, each with specific monitoring needs:

typescript
type ProjectSiteType = | 'solar_array' // 1.2x weather sensitivity | 'wind_farm' // 1.3x weather sensitivity | 'hydroelectric' // 1.1x weather sensitivity | 'coal' // 0.9x weather sensitivity | 'natural_gas' // 0.9x weather sensitivity | 'nuclear' // 0.8x weather sensitivity | 'geothermal' // 0.9x weather sensitivity | 'biomass' // 0.9x weather sensitivity | 'other'; // 1.0x weather sensitivity

Creating Sites

Using the Map Interface

  1. Click "Project Site Map" in the dashboard
  2. Enter drawing mode using the polygon tool
  3. Click to place boundary points
  4. Double-click to complete the polygon
typescript
interface ProjectSite { id: string; name: string; description: string; type: ProjectSiteType; coordinates: number[][]; // [longitude, latitude] pairs user_id: string; }

Required Information

  • Site Name
  • Site Type
  • Location (drawn polygon)
  • Description (optional)

Best Practices

  1. Accurate Boundaries
