How this service works
Hourly downward short-wave radiation flux in watts per square meter (W/m²)
Output
A time series of hourly downward short-wave radiation flux values in watts per square meter (W/m²) for the specified location and time range, enabling solar energy assessments, agricultural planning, and climate analysis.
Example use cases
Farm irrigation scheduling optimization
“I need to optimize when to water my crops at 40.2164° N, 88.2434° W. Can you grab the hourly solar radiation data for the next 3 days so I can schedule irrigation during low-intensity periods and reduce evaporation loss?”
Real-time rooftop solar performance monitoring
“My solar installation at 34.0522° N, 118.2437° W isn't hitting expected output today. Can you pull the hourly W/m² readings for the past 12 hours to help me figure out if it's cloud cover or a system issue?”
Climate research data collection
“We're studying seasonal radiation patterns across three vineyard sites in Napa. Can you fetch the hourly downward short-wave radiation flux for coordinates 38.2919° N, 122.2580° W, 38.3041° N, 122.2874° W, and 38.2975° N, 122.2750° W for the entire month of August to compare microclimates?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://mpp.orthogonal.com/precip/api/v1/solar-radiation-hourly?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need site-specific, hyperlocal hourly solar radiation flux data in W/m² — particularly for solar energy assessments, agricultural light modeling, or climate research. Prefer this over generic weather APIs when accuracy at the individual site level is critical and when you need the data at hourly resolution rather than daily summaries.
Side effects
- Invalid or out-of-range latitude/longitude returns an error
- Date range exceeds available historical data window
- Missing required location parameters returns a 400 error
- Unsupported date format causes a parsing error
- Location in a region with no coverage returns empty or null data
