The SoDa Service is a broker to a list of services and webservices related to Solar Radiation proposed by several research centers in Europe and abroad. The SoDa Service is managed by Transvalor S.A. located in Sophia Antipolis.

The research centers contributing to webservices in SoDa are very active, we thus potentially offer more services than listed in this website. Do not hesitate to contact us! Last modif: Feb. 2^nd 2012.

Dear User,

The SoDa Service is continuously redesigned.

The SoDa Service contributes to the international efforts made towards the construction of the single and interoperable information space for a better share of knowledge on solar resource. More information about interoperability. To improve the access to the information of SoDa, a new website is under preparation.
Contributors to the SoDa Service and Transvalor are also contributing to the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS), an initiative supported by the Group on Earth Observation (GEO). Our contribution is the development of webservices in agreement with the standards defined in the framework of GEOSS. These webservices can be invoked automatically and are hosted by the Energy Community Portal.
Below is a list of current projects which are contributing to the range of services offered by the SoDa Service:

	SolarMedAtlas: creation of a webmapservice to access GHI and BNI irradiation maps with a spatial resolution of 1 km Project dates: Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2012 Link to the SolarMedAtlas website Click on the image to magnify
	ENDORSE: providing ENergy DOwnstReam SErvices for GMES Project dates: Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2013 Link to the ENDORSE website
	MINES ParisTech and Transvalor are involved in many projects. The Solar Atlas over the region PACA yields a high resolution map of the solar potential of the region, and is now available for free on this website. It explores the challenge of fusing the complementary advantages of both ground station measures and satellite estimations to obtain an information of better quality. You can download a one-page pdf overview of this project.

The SoDa Team thanks its users whose remarks led to these improvements.
