Resolution

Temporal Resolution

Weather satellite data is available at temporal intervals of 10 to 15 minutes. Through real-time processing, irradiance values are made accessible at 15 minutes resolution via our API with a typical latency of 15 to 30 minutes from the time of capture.

Spatial Resolution

Spatially, the data is projected onto a regular latitude/longitude grid with a standard resolution of 0.0625° (~5–7 km).

For enhanced coverage over North America and Europe, we leverage high-resolution imagers (GOES-E/-C and MSG-HRV) to provide a superior 0.025° resolution product, which equates to approximately 2–3 km. This finer resolution supports more accurate monitoring and modeling of solar irradiance for regions with high data demand or complex terrain.
