Climate Data for Your Simulation
Download. Visualize. Convert.
With VICUS CLIMATE you download DWD measurement data, test reference years and worldwide climate data, visualize them interactively and export to all common formats for building simulation.
Why VICUS CLIMATE?
All the climate data you need - in one application. Free to use.
DWD Measurement Data
Download historical and current weather data directly from the German Weather Service. Temperature, radiation, wind, precipitation and more.
Test Reference Years (TRY)
TRY 2015 and 2045 in normal, extreme summer and extreme winter variants. Automatic assignment by coordinates.
Worldwide Climate Data
Global climate datasets (TMYx, ERA5) with interactive map view. Thousands of locations available worldwide.
Visualization & Export
Interactive time series charts, data editor and export to EPW, C6B and TSV for all common simulation tools.
Three Data Sources, One Tool
DWD Measurement Data
Access historical and current measurement data from the German Weather Service. 6 data categories: temperature/humidity, solar radiation, wind, pressure, precipitation and cloudiness. Automatic FTP download and caching.
Test Reference Years (TRY)
TRY 2015 (current) and TRY 2045 (future projection) in three variants: normal, extreme summer and extreme winter. Full coverage of Germany with Lambert projection.
Worldwide Climate Data
Global climate datasets from TMYx and ERA5 sources. Thousands of locations worldwide, interactively selectable on the map. Distance-based filtering and viewport search.
Features
13 Weather Parameters
Temperature, humidity, global/diffuse/direct radiation, longwave radiation, wind speed, wind direction, pressure, precipitation, cloudiness and derived solar angles.
Interactive Charts
7 time series plots with zoom, pan and value inspection. Temperature, radiation, wind, precipitation and more at a glance.
Data Editor
Cell-by-cell editing of all weather parameters. Clipboard support, validation and real-time synchronization with plots.
Interactive Map
OpenStreetMap-based map view with station markers, TRY grid cells and distance-based filtering.
Export Formats
Export to EPW (EnergyPlus), C6B (DELPHIN) and TSV. Editable metadata, start year and location information.
Batch Processing
Headless mode with JSON configuration for automated downloads and conversions. Ideal for project series.
Statistics & Analysis
Automatic calculation of Heating Degree Days (HDD) and Cooling Degree Days (CDD) at 18 °C base temperature. Data completeness indicators and summary location information.
The integrated data sanitization automatically fills gaps and calculates Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) from available radiation components.
