Pre-feasibility, automated
GeoScout automatically generates and ranks wind turbine layout proposals for any location in Europe. Type a place name, pick a turbine model, and within minutes get an interactive map showing where turbines can realistically go — already filtered against legal restrictions, environmental constraints, and grid availability.
Between 20,000 and 30,000 candidate positions are reviewed against Orklys' proprietary weighting of criteria. The best layouts are ranked, scored, and exportable as a standalone map you can share with investors, landowners, or your municipality

From place name to proposals
Watch GeoScout scout a real site
A short walk-through: place name in, ranked turbine layouts out with grid connection capacity and distance, energy yield, and impact zones layered on the map.
From place name to ranked proposals - in three steps
Traditional pre-feasibility takes weeks of GIS work and specialist consultants. GeoScout collapses it into a single web form — defensible, repeatable, data-backed.
Step 1. Type a location, pick a turbine
GeoScout finds the location and pulls live data from a dozen public sources: NASA wind climatology, Natura 2000 protected areas, roads and buildings (OSM), grid capacity (Energinet), and cadastral parcels.
Step 2. Algorithm ranks thousands of layouts
Two engines: a deterministic grid optimiser and a Monte Carlo sampler. Evaluate every viable turbine position. Each layout is scored on proximity to neighbouring buildings and grid access using three impact zones, then ranked best-first.
Step 3. Edit, share, and export
Move turbines to reflect your local knowledge, minimise neighbour impact while maximising power, and see updated yield instantly. Export results as a standalone HTML map. It is easy to share with communities, investors, landowners, and municipalities.
