Abstract
The basis for the determination of the solar potential is the identifi cation and classification of areas suited for the use of solar energy conversion systems. By means of photogrammetry the roofs of the buildi ngs in Vienna's eighth district are measured with respect to their pos ition, size, inclination and azimuth. The stored data are further proc essed in order to obtain the average local solar potential. The result s are discussed with respect to their relevance to the technical solar potential.
