We are a team of open source software developers and data engineers based in Germany. We spezialize in building applications based on open geodata. Explore our work at openpv.de.
Tired of the hassle of working with open data? We simplify the process of transforming and enriching open geodata into comprehensive, user-friendly datasets. Here's what we can provide:
🏠 A unified dataset of 3D Buildings for Germany from the LOD2 data of all 16 states
🌳 Work in Progress - 3D Vegetation data extracted from Laser Scans for several German states

This years 38c3, the conference of the Chaos Communication Club, took place in Hamburg from 27th to 30th of december, 2024. From OpenPV, both @magro and me (@floko) joined this conference. We presented OpenPV at the congress at the very first evening. You can find our talk on
PV systems can use two different sources of sun radiation to generate electricity. The obvious source is the direct radiation, meaning the light coming directly from the sun. The second source is the diffuse radiation, ie the radiation which is reflected by air particles and then hitting the PV panel. Hence, the blue of the sky is the second source of energy for PV systems.
