Attribute Quality

The accuracy of the satellite-based values is estimated by comparison with 1-minute averaged measurements from Bureau of Meteorology surface-based instruments. The mean bias difference (average of the satellite - surface difference), calculated on an annual basis across all surface sites, is -7 to +50 W/m2 and typically around +30 W/m2. This is +5% of the mean irradiance of around 540 W/m2. The root mean square difference, calculated on a similar basis, is around 150 W/m2, which is 30% of the mean irradiance. 

Positional Accuracy

The satellite data on which the analyses were based have an associated resolution and typical accuracy of 0.01 degrees.
