As renewable energy sources become more common, managing these resources becomes critical, particularly as the amount of energy produced can vary from these sources at different times. Opportunities and challenges arise as these sources increasingly become common, particularly determining what renewable sources to best exploit for given regions. Researches used GIS to study satellite data, climate modeling data, and tabular data to look at urban and rural regions and estimate their potential for renewable energy.
