METEONORM 8
METEONORM delivers global historical hourly values of irradiation, temperature, humidity, wind and precipitation from 2010 to present, constantly updated.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
METEONORM delivers global historical hourly values of irradiation, temperature, humidity, wind and precipitation from 2010 to present, constantly updated.
Based on data from 8,325 weather stations, five geostationary satellites and 30 years of experience, METEONORM offers state-of-the-art interpolation models, delivering global weather data with utmost accuracy.
Retrieve your weather data in over 35 data formats. Use Excel format for manual analysis or chose from most of the standard formats used in photovoltaic, solar thermal or building/energy simulation software.
Features
WORLDWIDE WEATHER DATA
The database is fed by 8,325 weather stations worldwide as well as by five geostationary satellites with global coverage.
HIGHEST PRECISION
Built-in state-of-the-art interpolation models deliver data for any location worldwide with the highest precision.
HISTORICAL DATA
The standard periods are 1996–2015 for irradiation data and 2000–2019 for other parameters.
CURRENT DATA
METEONORM allows to access current data online and also import custom data.
FUTURE DATA
METEONORM contains several climate change scenarios, so you can also plan for the future.
OVER 30 PARAMETERS
Global, diffuse and beam radiation, longwave radiation, luminance, solar azimuth and elevation, temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, etc.
TIME INTERVALS
METEONORM delivers monthly, hourly and even minute values. Data used by most of the energy simulation software applications.
EXPORT FORMATS
36 output formats are available: CSV, TMY2, TMY3, etc. Check below for a comprehensive list of available formats.
