Abstract
These are data from Deutschen Wetterdienst and their COSMO-DE model.
We've got forecast data (files with forecast in their name) and data of the assimilation analysis run.
The assimilation analysis is a re-run of the COSMO-DE model with measuremtns of DWD weather stations as a boundary condition. It is as close as possible to the actually then prevelant weather.
The forecast was requestd as follows: Beginning with the forecast run at 6 am (UTC) for the interval from 9 am to 8 am the following day inclusively. That way there is only one forecast value for each timestep.
From 21.03.2017 onwards the assimilation analysis of the irridiation data changed. Up until then the data was recalculated from DWD data.
All wind and temperature data are directly taken from DWD.
The irridiation data up until 21.03.2017 were calculated from the averages of 1 to 3 hours as given by the DWD, to have one average value for the then starting hour.
The author grants no guarantee for the validity of the recalculated data.
Creator of the data is the DWD.
This is simply a prepared, gathered and cut of the DWD data to have a handy and easily accessible data set for energy system simulation.
File format: hdf5 - Version 1 (created with Matlab)
Every file has the following values:
Latitudes in °, /latitude, 2D-grid, single-precision (4-Byte floating point), (X Y)
Longitudes in °, /longitude, 2D-grid, single-precision (4-Byte floating point), (X Y)
The recorded value (see below), /<shorthand>, 3D-grid, single-precision (4-Byte floating point), (X Y time)
Every file has the following attributes:
/creation_date
/author
/datasource
/datatype
/datatype_description
/unit
/timeframe
/steptime
/license
/comment
Wind data files have this additional attribute
/level
Dataset includes:
Temperature at 2m elevation (shorthand TMP) in K
Direct irridiation on the *horizontal* plane (shorthand ASWDIR) in W/m^2
Diffuse irridiation on the horizontal plane (shorthand ASWDIFD) in W/m^2
zonal wind speed (shorthand WZU) in m/s at levels 45-50
meridional wind speed (shorthand WMV) in m/s at levels 45-50
