Data & services page

The Data & services page lets you view and set your project data sources, its dataset add-ons, and request additional data or services. It consists of three main tabs: Solargis data, Imported data, and Solargis services.

This document describes the page and how to use it. To learn what each add-on and service actually provides and how to activate/request it, see Evaluate add-ons and data source updates. For an introduction to all six sections of the project navigation menu, see Working with Evaluate projects.

Solargis data tab

This tab includes the data sources available for your project. Based on availability, each data source may offer:

• Activation of uncertainty data.

• Activation of additional data add-ons (TMY Pxx).

• Activation of high-resolution data (1-minute TS data).

• Project data updates.

Tip: If you want to explore the data source and what datasets it includes, expand the data source accordion. Based on availability, the dataset may offer activations of uncertainty data, TMY Pxx datasets, or high temporal resolution data (1-min TS data).

Imported data tab

This tab shows the data you have imported to your project. Here you can:

• Import your own terrain data.

• Request terrain data consultancy.

The import procedure is described in Evaluate custom terrain imports.
