Данные о солнечной радиации на уровне земли важны для многих практических приложений метеорологии и климатологии, солнечной энергетики, гидрологии, сельскохозяйственных наук (физика сельского хозяйства, моделирование урожайности и оценка посевных), а также в здравоохранении (ультрафиолет).
Solar radiation data at ground level are important for a wide range of applications in meteorology, engineering, agricultural sciences (particularly for soil physics, agricultural hydrology, crop modeling and estimating crop evapo-transpiration), as well as in the health sector and in research in many fields of the natural sciences.
