The Renewable Resource Data Center (RReDC) has been developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) under the Resource Assessment Program. Initial offerings are broadband solar irradiance data bases such as the Daily Statistics Files and Typical Meteorological Years from the 1961--1990 National Solar Radiation Data Base, the West Associates data gathered in the Southwest US from 1976 through 1980, the New NOAA Network that replaced SOLMET from 1977 through 1980, and the one-minute data from four universities under the SEMRTS program. Unique data sets are the thousands of measured solar spectra and measurements of the solar intensity in the circumsolar region. All these data are provided with their accompanying documentation and online help. Other products such as Shining On and Solar Radiation Data Manual for Flat-Plate and Concentrating Collectors are available in their entirety, as well as glossaries, bibliographies, maps, and other user helps. The Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address of the RReDC is ``http://rredc.nrel.gov.`` Users should have World Wide Web (WWW) browsing software (such as Mosaic), which supports Forms and the necessary browsing viewers.
