gefs_half_deg_to_hourly_mean
(latitude, longitude, elevation, init_time, start, end, interval_label, load_forecast=<function load_forecast>, *, __model='gefs')[source]¶ Hourly average forecasts derived from GEFS 3, 6, and 12 hr frequency output. GHI from NWP model cloud cover. DNI, DHI computed. Max forecast horizon 384 hours.
Parameters: - latitude (float) –
- longitude (float) –
- elevation (float) –
- init_time (pd.Timestamp) – Full datetime of a model initialization
- start (pd.Timestamp) – Forecast start. Forecast is inclusive of this instant if interval_label is beginning and exclusive of this instant if interval_label is ending.
- end (pd.Timestamp) – Forecast end. Forecast is exclusive of this instant if interval_label is beginning and inclusive of this instant if interval_label is ending.
- interval_label (str) – Must be beginning or ending
Returns: - The columns of the DataFrames correspond to the GEFS members.
- ghi (pd.DataFrame)
- dni (pd.DataFrame)
- dhi (pd.DataFrame)
- air_temperature (pd.DataFrame)
- wind_speed (pd.DataFrame)
- resample_sort (function) – Resamples, then sorts the above DataFrames.
- solar_position_calculator (function)
Notes
Returned values are hourly averages sorted from smallest to largest at each time stamp. Each variable is sorted independently. This describes a ProbabilisticForecast with
