The World Radiation Data Centre(WRDC) is located in St. Petersburg at the Main Geophysical Observatory of the Russian Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring. The WRDC was established in 1964, and... it centrally collects, archives and publishes radiometric data for the world, to ensure the availability of these data for research purposes by the international scientific community.... The WRDC is the central depository of the measured components such as : global, diffuse and direct solar radiation, downward atmospheric radiation, net total and terrestrial surface radiation(upward), spectral radiation components(instantaneous fluxes), and sunshine duration, on hourly, daily or monthly basis. 3, record 2, English, - World%20Radiation%20Data%20Centre
