I played around a bit with Unirac's U-BUILDER and came up Unirac-lightrail-drk-snow.pdf . Personally, I found their 'Classic' tool to be much easier than their new 'Map' tool.
The south-facing array (10 panels) will barely fit on that section of roof. On all four sides, there will only be 11 inches between the edge of the array, and the edge of the roof -- assuming the array is centered. That concerns me a bit, since the roof over-hang is more than that. The array can be tucked up into the "upper right" corner, to give more buffer on the sections of roof which over-hang. It would not look as nice aesthetically, but I assume that it would be safer.
That section of roof looks like:
___________________________
|............................................/
|........................................../
|......................................../
|______________________/
With 6 panels on the top row, and 4 panels on the bottom.
