The Solar charts submodule consists of four charts:
The Solar charts submodule consists of four charts:


    Solar hours statistics - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar hours per year
#Solar hours statistics - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar hours per year
    Monthly solar hours statistics per year - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar hours per month per year
#Monthly solar hours statistics per year - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar hours per month per year
    Insolation statistics - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar energy per year
#Insolation statistics - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar energy per year
    Monthly Insolation statistics per year - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar energy per month per year
#Monthly Insolation statistics per year - Plotting the range, average and estimator for the standard deviation for the solar energy per month per year


Below you will find an example image of each chart and an explanation of the origin of the numbers.

For the insolation graphs the method of calculation is explained.
For the insolation graphs the method of calculation is explained.
For the calculations the standard C# LINQ-functions Min, Max and Avg are used. For the standard deviation this [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2253874/standard-deviation-in-linq LINQ-extension] is used with a modification for a minimum number of observations required of 2, if less the StdDev returns 0 (zero).
NOTE: for years where no solar sensor was present the chart displays the value 0 on all charts. The possibility not to display the years at all has not been implemented.

For all days in a year the value of field 25, ''Total hours of sunshine'' (see [[Dayfile.txt|Dayfile]]), is taken and the resulting statistics are calculated and plotted.
