August 5, 20242 yr comment_17057 Hi, I'm trying to insert my own climate data record into MeteoSyn in PVsol premium. I created a DAT-file (see screenshot 1) following the instructions on the help desk (https://help.valentin-software.com/pvsol/2023/en/pages/system-type-climate-and-grid/meteosyn/#options). Now, I want to import this file via the tab options in the 'import file' section (see screenshot 2). After inserting the file, I either get the error message: 'missing information could not be imported', or the file is saved in the WBV_userfiles folder, but then I can't figure out how to select this WBV-file to be included in the climate data in PVsol for calculations. How can I correctly import my file? Report
August 6, 20242 yr comment_17073 Hello Pauline Could you do me a favour and check if your data is correctly put into the right country? If the import worked and the file was saved it should be within the database. It could happen though that the country is not detected correctly. I assume you already did that but could you please double check your file formatting? Kind regards Frederik Report
August 7, 20242 yr Author comment_17079 Hello Frederik, When the file is saved among the userfiles, it ends up in the NLD (Netherlands) folder instead of BEL(Belgium). I'm confused because the coordinates 50.925,3.197 (entered as 50.925,-3.197) should be in Belgium. I've double checked the file formatting (less than 4 decimal digits, real tabs, 8764 lines (4 introducing lines and 8760 data lines). I added the file that gives the error 'Missing information could not be imported.'. Do you have any idea why I'm still unable to import the file correctly?

August 8, 20242 yr comment_17091 Hello Pauline We do use the format Degree.MinutesSeconds N, Degree.MinutesSeconds E (inverted), which in your case yields the tuple (50.5520,-3.1149). This is admittedly a bit cumbersome, but documented in our online help: https://help.valentin-software.com/pvsol/2024/en/pages/system-type-climate-and-grid/meteosyn/#options The file is correct and your climate data should now be available for Belgium. Kind regards Frederik Report
