Hello everyone, I'd like re-energize this post, as I have another question. I'm looking to include pyranometers into my project. Assuming that I will eventually derive my GHI data in (W/m^2). How do I literally take these values and format then in a way that can be observed visually? Is there free software? Are there ways to input this data to Google Earth, to get a visual? Thanks in advance, Alex

Excellent -thank you gentlemen! These are great resources to start with.

Hi everyone, wondering if anyone can help me in acquiring some GHI data, for a purely imaginary PV installation model that I'm trying to put together for a school project. I chose Julian, California as a small region to focus my model on to build imaginary PV arrays. Anyways, since the ground data sources are scarce in that region, I'm focusing on acquiring free satellite derived data from that last 10 years. Hope you folks can point me to the right direction. Thanks!
