Rooftop solar

Hi All, I'm getting ready to add an additional solar panel to my already existing factory installed solar system (same panel and manufacturer). I have a walk on roof that has a thin skin over it. My question...can I "assume" that since its walk on that under that skin the roof is covered in plywood?
Thanks!

Appears to be a plywood roof.

According to Go Power I am good to go for adding the panel to existing configuration.
