I am curious if anyone has been successful integrating SAM with ArcGIS? I have not been able to find much about integrating directly, so I'm likely to take the approach of manually populating a database. But I figured I would check to see if anyone has been able to establish a bi-directional connection between the two. The idea being I could identify a location in ArcGIS & use a polygon to map the area. Then, in SAM, I could create a model that uses those parameters (location, system size, etc.). Once the model is completed, I could run the system simulation which would then populate or replace the tables in the database referenced by ArcGIS. I've included a professional, very high quality, diagram to provide some insight.
Appreciate any perspective y'all can offer!
