It'd be great to have data on Solar resource and PV power potential in Nepal

I think data is available here: http://globalsolaratlas.info/downloads/nepal

Where and how exactly do you want the data to be added? I'm still going through the repository, some more details here would be really helpful. Thanks! 😄

@ravinepal Still waiting for your response. 😅

[ravinepal]

thanks, @janakrajchadha for the reminder. Sorry for the delay. We are looking to add solar power potential on a district/VDC/Municipality level.

We will add data PVOUT – Photovoltaic power potential [kWh/kWp] by creating a new section "Renewable Energy Potential" I think first we need to download the district/VDC/municipality level data (CSV format) and submit it here: https://github.com/Code4Nepal/data

Pls see this example of disaster related data.

Please let me know if you have qs.

@ravinepal Is there a recommended software for the conversion from AAIGRID/GeoTIFF format to csvs?

[ravinepal]

hey @janakrajchadha sorry i don't know. Perhaps try this https://mygeodata.cloud/converter/?

Also requesting @cliftonmcintosh, @prashishh, @amitness for any recommendations. thanks in advance guys!

@janakrajchadha and @ravinepal

I have not tried to convert this data type.
