NASA Surface Meteorology and Solar Energy - Available Tables

This document provides meteorological and solar energy data for a location at latitude 27.4 degrees north and longitude 70.6 degrees east at an elevation of 135 meters. It includes monthly averaged wind speeds at 50 meters above the surface for a 10-year period, with minimum and maximum differences from the monthly averages. It is recommended users review the methodology and correct for potential biases or local effects within the selected grid region.

It is recommended that users of these wind data review the SSE Methodology. The user may wish to correct for biases as well as local effects within the selected grid region. Parameter Definition

All height measurements are from the soil, water, or ice/snow surface instead of "effective" surface, which is usually taken to be near the tops of vegetated canopies. Units Conversion Chart
