This is a preliminary planning tool, not flight or survey approval. Forecasts may change. Irradiance in the plane of the panels must be measured on site; a dry surface, stable sunshine, the aircraft's wind limit and flight permissions must also be checked.
A “candidate window” is GES-TERMAL's preliminary screening approach, not a certificate of compliance with a standard. A window is identified when calculated solar elevation is at least 25°, forecast cloud cover is no more than 25%, average wind is no more than 18 km/h and forecast hourly rainfall is 0 mm. Hazardous weather symbols, strong gusts and missing or coarse-interval data are assessed separately. Thermal surveying at night or with a low sun is not recommended.
Solar elevation is calculated geometrically; it is not an irradiance measurement or an estimate in W/m². Thermal inspection measurement requirements, panel surface condition and safe flight conditions must be verified on site by the authorised team. Wind gust data may not be available for every location; missing data is identified separately. Further into the forecast, data may be at 6-hour intervals; these points are not presented as precise one-hour windows.

GES-TERMAL provides thermal drone inspections, panel fault investigations and technical reporting for solar power plants. Based in Ankara, our team works on rooftop and ground-mounted projects across Türkiye according to site conditions.
We assess thermal images alongside site information to identify maintenance needs at panel, string and rooftop level. Explore the scope of our solar PV thermal analysis service.
We identify cell and panel areas that heat abnormally compared with their surroundings, reporting possible causes and verification requirements.
Panel fault and hotspot detection →We examine differing temperature patterns in panel strings. We report suspected electrical faults with recommendations for the necessary site checks and measurements.
How does thermal surveying work? →We survey panels on factory and warehouse roofs from the air to examine anomalies, shading and maintenance needs in hard-to-reach areas.
Rooftop PV inspection scope →We bring together finding locations, thermal images and recommended checks. We support your operations team's prioritisation and follow-up inspections.
Maintenance and reporting process →Save time with our fast, systematic operational process.
We determine suitable flight parameters and routes according to your project's location and size.
We begin thermal camera solar panel inspections with our high-resolution drones. As part of drone-based solar PV inspections, we collect radiometric data and complete solar panel testing and measurement processes in accordance with standards.
We combine artificial intelligence and engineering analysis to provide an actionable repair plan.
We help you base maintenance decisions at your plant on measurable data. We present thermal survey findings together with site conditions and recommended checks.
Thermal images help assess temperature distributions that are not apparent in visible-light images. The illustrative images below explain our inspection approach.

Abnormal heating may indicate a problem requiring inspection. Its impact depends on the panel's condition and the system's operating conditions.
Appearing as a strip in thermal analysis, this fault affects the panel's entire string and reduces overall performance.
The cause of the finding is verified first, then the need for maintenance, repair or replacement is assessed. Warranty procedures depend on the manufacturer's conditions.

GES-TERMAL provides solar PV thermal analysis, solar panel fault investigations, industrial rooftop PV drone inspections and maintenance reporting. Compare service scopes.
No. Thermal inspection identifies abnormal temperature distributions. Establishing the root cause may require site records, electrical measurements or other complementary tests. The scope and limitations of fault detection.
Site location, installed capacity, rooftop or ground-mounted configuration, layout, flight conditions and report detail are assessed. Comparable quotations require the same survey scope and deliverables. Explore the factors that affect pricing.
System operating status, irradiance, wind, passing clouds and reflections are considered together. The appropriate day and time depend on site conditions. The survey may need rescheduling when the required conditions are not met.
The final report schedule is agreed at the quotation stage based on site size and analysis scope. A report should include finding locations, images, measurement conditions and recommended checks. A guide to reading a thermal inspection report.
We are based in Ankara. We serve solar power plants across Türkiye according to site conditions and operational planning. You can share your project's location and capacity through our contact channels with us.
From the basics to maintenance decisions: start with the right questions.
GES is the Turkish abbreviation for a solar power plant. Photovoltaic panels convert sunlight into electricity; the inverter and connection components allow the system to work together.
Learn about the components and inspection needs →A thermal camera images infrared radiation. Temperature differences between panels may identify areas requiring inspection; measurement conditions matter when interpreting them.
Read how thermography works →The finding's location, survey conditions and recommended verification steps are considered together. A colour image alone is not a definitive fault diagnosis.
