[Ibpsausa] New Climate Data available from Climate.OneBuilding -- USA ... and our 13, 000th location!

[Dru Crawley]

Climate.OneBuilding.org <http://climate.onebuilding.org/> is pleased to
announce the availability of new free climate data (TMYx) -- including our
13,000th location -- 2585 locations in USA. These new data include 2018
(TMYx based on 2004-2018 data) and NSRDB PSM V3 (https://nsrdb.nrel.gov/)
solar data for USA.

TMYx are derived from the ISD (US NOAA's Integrated Surface Database) with
hourly data through 2018 using the TMY2/ISO ISO 15927-4:2005 methodologies.
Of course, any naming mistakes in any of the countries are ours. More
details on the numbers of locations by country are at the end of this
message.

Adding these data to the earlier (April/October/November 2018 and
February/March/July 2019) sets for the rest of the world,
Climate.OneBuilding.org now provides a worldwide climate TMYx data at no
cost for more than 13,250 locations and another 3,200 from other data
sources worldwide. All data have been through extensive quality checking to
identify and correct data errors and out of normal range values where
appropriate.

Each climate location .zip on Climate.OneBuilding.org
<http://climate.onebuilding.org/> contains: EPW (EnergyPlus weather
format), CLM (ESP-r weather format), and WEA (Daysim weather format) along
with DDY (ASHRAE design conditions in EnergyPlus format), RAIN (hourly
precipitation in mm, where available), and STAT (expanded EnergyPlus
weather statistics).
