Abstract

The Measurements of the solar radiation is important in choosing sites to install projects with solar systems. Adrar region is classified from the high potential solar areas in the world. In this study, we using the atmospheric products of satellite MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) and bird model to estimate global solar radiation. The results of estimation were validated with observed data of Adrar station (lat = 36.6, lon = 028). The correlation is very significant and the linear correlation coefficient between estimated and measured values of global solar radiation equal 0.78.
