FullView Site Analysis Report

Once you’ve identified promising locations, 3TIER can provide the accurate and in-depth information you need to assess the potential of the site and begin making decisions. Our FullView Site Analysis Report gives you a complete picture of the solar resources at the site – based on an 11-year time series - including their intensity and variability.

The report itself, presented as a 13-page PDF document, is an easily interpreted and referenced document. The accompanying data file provides hour-by-hour granularity that can be easily integrated into your own analytical models.

For a given site, the FullView Site Analysis Report includes:

• Maps of the area surrounding area (50km by 50km): average annual solar irradiance for Global Horizontal (GHI), Direct Normal (DNI), and Diffuse (DI).
• Plots of the average monthly solar irradiance for GHI, DNI and DI values, including the standard error for each value.
• Plots showing the average diurnal variability of GHI, DNI, and DI for each month of the year.
• Histograms of the hourly distribution of GHI, DNI and DI values.
• 12x24 tables of irradiance data are color-coded to show variations in GHI, DNI and DI data for easy interpretation.
• A data file that includes the complete hourly time series for GHI, DNI, and DI values for the period 1997-2007, with solar zenith and azimuth angles for each hourly value to facilitate further analysis.

3TIER’s FullView Site Analysis Reports are based on a proprietary dataset that offers unparalleled accuracy and value.
