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 2 distinct integration methods: a REST API and a C library.

At a glance.

TMY

Globally available typical meteorological years.

Historic (Soon)

Enhancement of measurement data with essential, derived parameters. Use our historic data or bring your own.

A Strong Foundation

Expert curated data from 10,000 meteorological stations, 5 satellites, and climate reanalysis.

Extremes

Simulation of radiation and temperature extreme scenarios for robust risk assessment.

Climate Change

Future climate scenarios. Including the low, medium and high emission pathways SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5 and SSP3-7.0.

Bankability

Meteonorm is an industry-wide standard, trusted by experts.

Next Generation

Better results and up to 10x faster thanks to rewritten and optimized algorithms.
