A geographic information system method to generate long term regional solar radiation resource maps: enhancing decision-making by Sachin Jain (19161721)

“…Long-term monthly maps of daily total solar radiation have been produced which consist of 12 monthly maps for global horizontal irradiance (GHI) and 12 monthly maps for direct normal irradiance (DNI) for each month of the year. A significant improvement of 9.15% and 9.32% in GHI and DNI estimation has been observed after calibration, which brings down the Normalized Root Mean Square Error (NRMSE) to 4% and 11.70% for GHI and DNI respectively as compared to the non-calibrated satellite data estimation.…”
