RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Is There A Way To Merge Weather Files?





I am not sure where you get your weather, but if you are looking at a live station, it is common for there to be times when there are no readings because the system is down, no one is there to make a manual reading, or the data recorded is in error.  I don’t know any common utility for “fixing” missing data.  For a few hour break you could either use the last value as a filler or create an average of the last good and next good data without much problem.  For days of missing data, you have to have some sort of cyclical filler day.  How you do this could introduce significant error.

The files come down in dozens of little pieces ranging from a couple of days to several months.

Is there a utility to merge them? They are in CSV or IWC format.

Sidebar: is their a standard DEF file for the CSV data?
