      <abstract>
        Engineering Weather Data is a product offered by the National
Climatic Data Center (NCDC). This CD-ROM contains an update of a very popular
publication that was first printed by the Air Force in 1967 and republished
in 1978. As compared to the Engineering Weather Data publication, the new
interactive CD-ROM data base contains updated meteorological tables, new
summarized parameters, and graphical displays. Approximately 800 worldwide
stations have been summarized. The period of record summarized for most
stations is 1973-1996.
For each station, the data and information on this CD-ROM include: summarized
design criteria data for dry and wet bulb temperatures and humidity ratios,
average annual climate summaries, psychrometric summaries, binned temperature
data, annual temperature and humidity summaries, heating and cooling degree
data summaries for building envelop loads, ventilation and infiltration loads,
solar radiation data, and seasonal wind direction and wind speed summaries.
      </abstract>
      <purpose>
        To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers
and the public.
