Hi Saikat,

This issue was fixed in SAM 2021.12.02. Please update SAM to the latest version. You can download the latest version from sam.nrel.gov/download

Hi Saikat,

The following error means that for that location, you have to use the Advanced Download option on the Location and Resource page:
No TMY file available for "-34.77,143.50". (Available datasets: [ himawari, himawari7, himawari-tmy ])

Try the Advanced Download option or see https://sam.nrel.gov/weather for other sources of data.

Check Advanced download on the Location and Resource page and then click Download and add to library to open the Advanced NSRDB Download window.

From the Advanced NSRDB Download window, you can choose from a list of available field. If you need a typical meteorological year (TMY) file, you'll find it listed at the end of the list:



Best regards,
Paul.
