The data set contains the solar global horizontal radiation for Zimbabwe at a resolution of 0.5 x 0.5 degrees longitude x latitude grid resolution. The database is developed by merging ground measured and satellite measured data using a method in the journal article: 11. Hove, T., E. Manyumbu, and G. Rukweza (2014). “Developing an improved global solar radiation map for Zimbabwe through correlating long-term ground- and satellite-based monthly clearness index values.” Renewable Energy 63: 687–697. The data has been validated by the authors to have a maximum normalised root mean square error of less than 3% in predicting ground truth radiation.本数据集涵盖津巴布韦地区的太阳总水平面辐射数据，空间分辨率为0.5×0.5度经纬度网格。该数据集通过融合地面实测与卫星实测数据构建，所用方法来自如下文献：[11] Hove, T.、Manyumbu, E. 与 Rukweza, G.（2014）. 《通过关联长期地面与卫星月晴空指数值构建津巴布韦优化全球太阳辐射图谱》，刊载于《可再生能源（Renewable Energy）》第63卷，第687–697页。经原作者验证，该数据集在预测地面实测辐射值时，归一化均方根误差最大值小于3%。
