Computer application for studies of potentials of renewable energy sources

Abstract:

At present, websites and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are conceived as an application on different fronts, since they are instruments that allow companies and decision-makers to help the real knowledge of the space where social relationships take place and their interaction with the environment. Geographical Information Technologies are considered part of the central nucleus of Geography since geographers have a prominent role in its development, are part of the main conceptual traditions of the subject, and have a marked professional projection (Chuvieco et al., 2005; Kingston et al., 2000; Nath et al., 2000). The Geographical Information System of Renewable Energy Sources (SIGFRE) in Cuba is a tool that in energy applications has gone through various scenarios and levels of development, in a first stage it was designed for a municipality in the inventory of communities and settlements that were not electrified (Dominguez & Amador, 2007), this technology was passing through to provincial studies, its fundamental application was carried out in the province of Santiago de Cuba (Gámez, 2011) and taking into account the results obtained were used in the energy planning of said territory (Rodríguez et al., 2017). The application of the system has been developed and expanded to new provinces that are incorporated into the database (DB), between 1998 and 2002 it was generalized to the five eastern provinces (Holguín, Granma, Guantánamo, Las Tunas, and Santiago de Cuba), mainly for inventories and knowledge of the communities without electrification, as well as the study of the type of existing electrification (Martin et al …
