We are constantly working to improve Solargis. Below are details of recent updates to Solargis model and services.
If you have a feature request, send us your feedback via our contact form.
- Integrated ERA5 data into our historical time series and TMY
- Better temporal consistency of data
- PVOUT CSi map layer was updated.
- Performance of application (loading time) was improved
- Compatibility issues with Firefox/Safari browsers were fixed
- Operational aerosol data harmonization was updated for data starting from Jan 2019. Solar radiation data for all regions were re-calculated using updated aerosol data.
- The data harmonization is used to control temporal stability of the input aerosol data coming from various versions of models.
- The biggest changes can be expected for DNI during extreme situations when there was very high or very low AOD (aerosol optical depth). GHI is also affected but to a smaller extent.
Initial release of Prospect app, which will replace iMaps and pvPlanner. Overview of updates and improvements can be seen here: https://solargis.com/blog/product-updates/prospect-launch
- TMY files generated for locations covered by Meteosat PRIME satellite (Europe and Africa) had a small temporal mismatch with time series. The TMY generation srcipts were updated to remove the temporal mismatch.
- Frequency of forecasts delivered via FTP was increased from 2 to 4 times a day.
- The forecasts are now delivered at 2:30 AM, 8:30 AM, 14:30 PM, and 20:30 PM (all times in UTC)
