Abstract

atellite derived irradiance information currently approaches a status as standard input for solar energy system analysis. Due to
intrinsic limitations in spatial and temporal resolution, these data fail to give information of the full dynamics of the irradiance field
in space and time. The analysis of systems with sensibility to details of the temporal evolution of the irradiance field and systems
with sensibility to the spatial inhomogeneity of the field require knowledge of its fine-structured. Thus, methods for a respective
enhancement of the satellite derived data are needed. This contribution presents various approaches discussed for setting up
respective input data.
