🌍 ClimateGenerator is an interactive tool for downloading, combining, and converting climate data from the German Weather Service (DWD) into simulation-ready formats. It enables engineers, researchers, and planners to generate consistent weather files for building performance simulations and environmental modeling.

🔍 What It Does

• Accesses Measurement Data
  Retrieves hourly measurement data (temperature, humidity, solar radiation, wind, precipitation, etc.) from the official DWD FTP server.

• Interactive Data Selection
  Choose time periods, measurement stations, and relevant variables through a user-friendly interface or configuration file.

• Combines Multiple Data Sources
  Merges data from different stations (e.g. temperature from one, radiation from another) into a coherent dataset for simulation.

• Converts to Simulation Formats
  Generates standard weather file formats such as:

  • EPW (EnergyPlus Weather File)
  • C6B (VICUS/DELPHIN format)
  • TSV (Tab-separated values, CSV with Tabs - easy to open in LibreCalc, MS Excel)

---

🛠️ Applications

The generated files can be directly used in:

• VICUS – Building and district simulation tool
• DELPHIN – Coupled heat and moisture simulation tool
• EnergyPlus / OpenStudio – Building energy simulation
• Any other simulation software supporting EPW or CSV-based climate input

📂 Data Sources

All data is based on high-quality measurements from the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD). Access is via the DWD Open Data FTP, which is publicly available.

🚧 Project Goals

• ✅ Provide a transparent and reproducible way to generate simulation-ready climate files
• ✅ Enable combinations of multiple DWD stations based on proximity or data quality
