Abstract  

This article introduces CiesMap software, developed in Visual Studio 2022, designed to collect and manage information about photovoltaic systems (PV systems) in Cuba. It was applied in the diagnostic assessment of PV systems in the municipality of Guamá, Santiago de Cuba. CiesMap enables the recording of technical data such as location, generation capacity, and operational status of PV systems. Using an interactive satellite view through the GMap control, the software facilitates the identification of settlements and PV systems with color-coded markers. Moreover, CiesMap integrates with an Access database for storing and monitoring PV system information. This tool optimizes energy resource management, enhances strategic planning, and facilitates data-driven decision-making, thereby improving the operational efficiency of PV systems.
