6 FAQs about [South Africa solargis com]
How accurate are solar maps for South Africa and Lesotho & Swaziland?
The accuracy enhancement of two high-resolution solar maps for South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland is based on regional adaptation of SolarGIS solar model with data measured at fourteen high-standard solar measuring stations. SolarGIS is a global database of solar resource and meteorological parameters, developed and operated by GeoModel Solar.
What is Solargis?
SolarGIS is a global database of solar resource and meteorological parameters, developed and operated by GeoModel Solar. SolarGIS is updated daily by real-time satellite, atmospheric and meteorological data inputs.
Is Solargis a good model for South Africa?
SolarGIS model shows robust and uniform behaviour in South Africa, which is consistent with our experience worldwide [4, 19]. Validation shows bias and RMSD within expected range of values. Due to higher computational complexity, bias for DNI is approximately two times higher compared to GHI.
Are solar maps available in the public domain?
In 2014, a solar mapping project was conducted in collaboration with GIZ, Stellenbosch University, Solargis and GeoSUN Africa. This allowed for updated and accurate solar maps and data to be available on the public domain. Click here for Solar resources maps & GIS layers for South Africa.
Are solar irradiation maps available in the public domain?
In 2014 GeoSUN was involved in a solar mapping project for South Africa. From this project, highly accurate solar maps and GIS layers were generated and are now available in the public domain. Accuracy enhanced solar irradiation maps for South Africa. GIS Layers for GHI and DNI for South Africa available.
What is the uncertainty of Solargis model in South Africa?
Most of analyzed ground-measurements in South Africa, after quality control, are of good quality and their uncertainty is included in the estimate of the model uncertainty. The uncertainty of SolarGIS model before and after regional adaptation is shown in Tab. 5, and its geographic distribution is discussed in Tab. 6.
