Hello,
While working with EPW weather files recently, I noticed that the file format has changed within the past 2 months. I compared two files for the same location I had downloaded a month apart (September and October 2009). The October file has 3 new columns of information. Does anyone know what that additional information is? A updated list of headers would be nice too.
This format change would affect some third party programs like Climate Consultant 4 (and maybe Ecotect/ weather tool) which use EPW file input.
Thanks.
