The POWER Project contains over 380 satellite-derived meteorology and solar energy Analysis Ready Data (ARD) at four temporal levels: hourly, daily, monthly (by year 12 months + annual averages), and climatology. The POWER Data Archive provides data at the native resolution of the source data products. The data is updated nightly to maintain Near Real Time (NRT) availability (2-3 days for meteorological parameters and 5-7 days for solar). The POWER Project targets three specific user communities: Renewable Energy (RE), Sustainable Buildings (SB), and Agroclimatology (AG). The POWER Projects provides community specific parameters, output formats, naming conventions, and units that are commonly employed by each user community. The POWER Services Catalog consists of a series of RESTful Application Programming Interfaces (API), geospatial enabled image services, and a web mapping Data Access Viewer (DAV). These three different service offerings support data discovery, access, and distribution to our user base as ARD and as direct application inputs to decision support tools.

NASA's goal in Earth science is to observe, understand, and model the Earth system to discover how it is changing, to better predict change, and to understand the consequences for life on Earth. The Applied Sciences Program, within the Earth Science Division of the NASA Science Mission Directorate, serves individuals and organizations around the globe by expanding and accelerating societal and economic benefits derived from Earth science, information, and technology research and development.

The Prediction Of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) Project, funded through the Applied Sciences Program at NASA Langley Research Center, gathers NASA Earth observation data and parameters related to the fields of surface solar irradiance and meteorology to serve the public in several free, easy-to-access and easy-to-use methods. POWER helps communities become resilient amid observed climate variability by improving data accessibility, aiding research in energy development, building energy efficiency, and supporting agriculture projects.

The latest data version update includes hourly-based source ARD, in addition to enhanced daily, monthly, annual, and climatology data. The daily time series for meteorology is available from 1981, while solar-based parameters start in 1984. The hourly source data are from Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) and Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO), spanning from 1984 for meteorology and from 2001 for solar-based parameters. The hourly data equips users with the ARD needed to model building system energy performance, providing information directly amenable to decision support tools introducing the industry standard EnergyPlus Weather file format.

The data set consists of the hourly load demand, hourly solar irradiance and hourly wind speed of a community located in Northern part of Nigeria named Bara, Kirfi Local Government area of Bauchi state, Nigeria. The hourly solar resource data and wind resource data of the community for a period of one year is obtained from an existing database of the Power Data Access Viewer of National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA).

The Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resource (POWER) Project is funded through the NASA Applied Sciences Program within the Earth Science Mission Directorate. The POWER Project supports three user communities with solar and/or meteorological data: 1) Renewable Energy (RE), 2) Sustainable Buildings (SB), and 3) Agroclimatology (AG)POWER Data Sources:The POWER project provides access to community-based Analysis Ready Data (ARD) for meteorology and solar-related parameters, specifically formulated for assessing and designing renewable energy systems.The data is available on at the source models’ native latitude and longitude global grid.Temporal levels include Hourly, Daily, Monthly, Annual, and Climatology.

In 2020 the world was presently burdened with the COVID-19 pandemic. World Health Organization confirms 34,874,744 cases with 1,097,497 deaths (case fatality rate (CFR) 3.1%) were reported in 216 countries. In Indonesia, the number of people who have been infected and the number who have died are approximately 287,008 and 10,740 (CFR 3.7%), respectively, with the most predominant regions being Jakarta (73,700), East Java (43,536) and Central Java (22,440). Many factors can increase the transmission of COVID-19. One of them is wind speed. This data set contains covid-19 data in DKI Jakarta from June 2020 until August 2022 and wind speed in daily power point form. This data can be analyzed to see the correlation between wind speed and the COVID-19 cases., The records of COVID-19 were obtained from the special website of coronavirus for the Daerah Khusus Ibukota (DKI) Jakarta at the Provincial Health Office (https://corona.jakarta.go.id/en/data-pemantauan). The COVID-19 data (n = 4,740) covered six administrative city areas and 261 sub-districts in DKI Jakarta as research locations, namely Kepulauan Seribu, West Jakarta, Central Jakarta, South Jakarta, East Jakarta, and Nort Jakarta. The wind speed data was taken from the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency's data website. The wind speed data collected for the period June 2020 to August 2022 (n = 790) was obtained from the POWER LaRC Data Access Viewer, Jakarta. The wind speed data in .csv format is downloaded by specifying the type of daily data unit, data period (time extent), and parameter (in this case wind/pressure). The type of data extraction is POWER Single Point, where the location of the centroid or midpoint of DKI Jakarta Province is determined at latitude -6.1805 an...,
