**Radiation Data**
Contains the state of the radiation data for every simulation output.
The radiation data files are produced each main output interval (default: 60 min) and represent the general state of the radiation at the given model time.
==== Variable list ====
This list represents the general variable structure. The actual sequence of the variables might differ but the same information is stored in total.
| |**Variable** |**Unit** |**Description** |
| |Objects| - | Single object IDs to visualize the model domain. Meaning of the different IDs is stored in LEONARDO Special Layer Definition Files|
| |Q_sw Direct| W/m² | Direct shortwave radiation|
| |Q_sw Direct Relative| - | Local direct shortwave radiation relative to the total shortwave radiation|
| |Q_sw Diffuse| W/m² | Diffuse shortwave radiation|
| |Q_sw Reflected Upper Hemisphere| W/m² | Reflected horizontal radiation of the upper hemisphere|
| |Q_lw Upper Hemisphere| W/m² | Longwave radiation of the upper hemisphere|
