map of San Francisco solar monitoring stations

The chart contains information for the SFPUC solar monitoring sites that have at least one year of data as of 3/7/10, and the map shows the location and insolation kWh/m2/day for 24 sites in San Francisco.  The brightness of the kilowatt hour numbers varies with the insolation.  Differences in nearby stations may be due to the different time periods monitored for each station, differences in the pyranometers, shading, or "microclimates."  Data is from http://sfwater.org/custom/solar/WDLYear.xml
