Abstract
Recently the construction of solar plant showed a steady growth in influence of renewable energy policy. It is very important to determine the optimal location and aspect of solar panel using analyzed data of solar radiation to solar plant area beforehand. This study analyzed solar radiation in solar plant area using DEM acquired from UAV geospatial information. Mean solar radiation of 2017 was calculated as $1,474,466W/m^2$ and total solar radiation of 2017 considering solar plant area showed $33,639MW/m^2$ on analyzed result. It is important to analyze monthly solar radiation in aspect of maintenance works of solar plant. Monthly solar radiation of May to July was calculated over $160,000W/m^2$ and that of January to February and November to December showed under $80,000W/m^2$ in monthly solar radiation analysis of solar plant area. Also this study compared with solar radiation being calculated from UAV geospatial information and that of National Institute of Meteorological Sciences. And mean solar radiation of study area showed a little high in comparison with whole country data of National Institute of Meteorological Sciences, because the 93.7% of study area was composed of south aspect. Therefore this study can be applied to calculate solar radiation in new developed solar plant area very quickly using UAV.
