High resolution (5 minute) historical data is available on demand in the contiguous U.S. (latitudes 15° to 50°, longitudes -125° to -62°) from 1/1/2020 and is updated monthly.

1Satellite visible-light resolution. Regions with more than 1 spatial resolution were covered by satellites whose spatial resolution changed during our period of record. For consistency across geographies, data is accessed in 1km and 10km nominal, which corresponds to 0.01 or 0.1 degree grid.

SolarAnywhere High-Latitude Data

We offer basic irradiance data in high-latitude regions, covering +/-[60–80] degrees latitude. While satellite coverage of this region is available, native data resolutions are much coarser than our data within 60 degrees latitude. For more information, see our high-latitude methods and validation.
