Daily UV index and UV dose data
in yearly netCDF files

go to TEMIS Home Page

UV archive
overview

Archives of maps and data files of individual days:
      Clear-sky UV index:   erythemal
      Daily UV dose:   erythemal  |  vitamin-D  |  DNA-damage
 
The standard UV data archive − accessible through the links above −
provides maps and links to HDF-4 data files for individual days.

This page provides the daily UV data gathered together
in yearly netCDF files as well as climatologies.

Notes


Data files can also be downloaded with a script, for example, using wget:
     wget https://www.temis.nl/uvradiation/v2.0/nc/2020/uvdvc2020_world.nc
     wget https://www.temis.nl/uvradiation/v2.0/nc/2018/uvddc2018_europe.nc
     wget https://www.temis.nl/uvradiation/v2.0/nc/clim/uviefclim_world.nc
where the first 5 characters of the data file name (such as uvdvc) is the prefix
listed in the last column of the table above, and clim indicates climatologies.

UV data timeseries at a given location

From these files it is relatively easy to extract time series for a given location
-- so-called overpass data -- e.g. by starting from this sample Python tool.

You may, however, want to check first whether we are already extracting and
daily updating overpass data for your location -- see this page.
