Stefan Amberger on X: "Tried this across an entire German state
Three prompts and Tilebox ran zero-shot Qwen3.8-Max across Brandenburg. We found 247 PV power plant candidates.
82 km² at high confidence, official capacity implies ~87 km².
Almost the whole expected footprint in one shot! https://t.co/SFBmZQ3hPj" / X<br>Post

The polygons aren’t perfect, still, going from a prompt to a statewide map without training a detector is pretty wild.
