The area of study for assessing and modeling of biomass and solar energy covers Morobe Province and Lae city. Lae City is the capital of Morobe Province and is the second-largest city of Papua New Guinea (Figure 1). The study area for biomass land suitability (Eucalyptus pellita) covers the whole of the Morobe region. .
Firstly a field survey was conducted to gain an understanding of the social, economical, and environmental aspects of biomass and solar and the problems associated with the. .
The data collection for biomass comprised of the field interview and the primary raw datasets for assessing site suitability. The datasets were satellite imagery and the physical suitability. .
The detailed conceptual framework used in assessing the site suitability for biomass involved four-step processes. The first step was identifying and selecting base input datasets or suitability parameters for biomass. The selection of land suitability criteria for biomass was substantially based on the effect they each have on the performance or t. .
Two solar radiation tools, (i) Area solar radiation and (ii) Point solar radiation tools under the spatial analyst toolbox of ArcGIS were used to calculate incoming solar insolation on the two study sites for specific time periods. Area solar radiation tools derive incoming solar radiation from a raster surface and point solar radiation derives inc. [pdf]
