Climate
Model, simulate, decide.
Understand the past, plan the future.
Climate synthesizes typical meteorological years (TMY) for the present and the future. Based on interpolated data from the best available sources with access to over 10'000 meteorological stations and 5 satellites — enriched with reanalysis data. Climate can also enhance historical records and your own measurements with derived parameters.
Rich data at your fingertips.
Climate offers over 50 parameters, exportable in more than 10 file formats. Worldwide availability and temporal resolutions down to 1 minute. In addition, Climate can provide historical records back to 2010. Whether you are in construction, energy or science, we have you covered.
An industry standard.
Climate is the direct successor to Meteonorm 8 and the next step in our 40 year legacy. Climate is a well established standard and trusted by scientists, architects, engineers, traders and financial institutions. Save yourself the headache, use Climate.
The right tool for the job.
Climate comes in 3 variations. For analysts and business users, a completely redesigned web application provides an intuitive user interface for effortless data analysis and visualization. And for developers, Climate provides two distinct integration methods: a REST API and a C library.
At a glance.

Can't wait? You can still buy Meteonorm 8
Don't compromise,
plan for every scenario.
Let's do business together.
To use the Climate API simply buy Meteonorm API Tokens. Tokens are usable across all Meteonorm products, so you can use the services you need, without a hassle.
Pricing
Endpoint
Tokens per request
* For a request period of 1 year.
Bundles
Do you need data for one project or want to try out an API? Bundles are a great way to get started. You buy a set amount of tokens that you can use as you like. And don't worry, you can always buy more.
* Tokens are valid for 4 years
If the annual revenue from applications using the Meteonorm API is above 24'000 CHF a custom contract is required.
