Girasol, a sky imaging and global solar irradiance dataset

TLDR
In this paper, the Girasol Machine (Girasol means Sunflower in Spanish) is proposed to forecast Global Solar Irradiance (GSI) using a data acquisition system (DAQ) that simultaneously records sky imaging and GSI measurements, with the objective of extracting features from clouds and use them to forecast the power produced by a Photovoltaic (PV) system.
