How is SolarGIS created?
Solar radiation is computed by GeoModel Solar using in-house developed and operated
meteorological models. We use satellite and atmospheric data as input. The performance
of the models is validated against data from several high-quality meteo stations located worldwide.
More detailed information is available in the SolarGIS data specification document (PDF).
