Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology now become a new
trend for the home builders and buyers of the twentieth century,
in order to have not only good in structure, but also more
environmentally friendly. Understanding the rooftop PV
potential is important for planning, accommodate grid capacity
,and many more, this paper demonstrate the technique utilizing
the LiDAR data merge with the Geographical Information
System to determine the suitable location to locate the PV solar
panels. There are five criteria that had been used to select the
best location which is generate the ground mask, aspect mask,
slope mask, human mask and high radiation layer. Based on the
output of the suitable location, the estimating number of solar
panel can be generate based on the calculation of one-and half
square area meter was used as a required area for each solar
panel. This new understanding of roof area distribution and
potential PV outputs will guide energy policy formulation in
Georgetown area and will inform future research in solar PV
deployment and its geographical potential
