[EnergyPlus_Support] New Simulation Climate Data Available for “Middle East” from Climate. OneBuilding.Org






Climate.OneBuilding.org   is pleased to announce the availability of new climate data (TMYx) for more than 260 locations in countries for the Middle East.  New countries uploaded are Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syrian Arab Republic, United Arab Emirates and Yemen. This is in addition to the previously uploaded data for Cyprus, Egypt, Kuwait, Lebanon, and Turkey. New countries uploaded are Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syrian Arab Republic, United Arab Emirates and Yemen. The TMYx are derived from the ISD (US NOAA's Integrated Surface Database) with hourly data through 2017 using the TMY2/ISO ISO 15927-4:2005 methodologies (that is, Typical Meteorlogical Years). There may be two TMYxs for a location, e.g., for Cairo Intl AP:  EGY_QH_Cairo.Intl.AP.623660_TMYx, and EGY_QH_Cairo.Intl.AP.623660_TMYx. In those cases, there's a TMY for the entire period of record and a second TMY for the most recent 15 years (2003-2017). Not all locations have recent data.

Adding these data to the earlier (April 2018 and October 2018) sets, Climate.OneBuilding.org now provides climate TMYx data at no cost for more than 4,400 locations and another 3,000 from other data sources worldwide. All data have been through extensive quality checking to identify and correct data errors and out of normal range values where appropriate.

Each climate location .zip on Climate.OneBuilding.Org   contains: EPW (EnergyPlus weather format), CLM (ESP-r weather format), and WEA (Daysim weather format) along with DDY (ASHRAE design conditions in EnergyPlus format), RAIN (hourly precipitation in mm, where available), and STAT (expanded EnergyPlus weather statistics).

For more information or to download any of the weather data (no cost), go to http://Climate.OneBuilding.org
