Core Concepts

These pages explain the data and computations behind a STRIDE projection. They follow the rough flow of a project: input datasets are sourced, downloaded, and validated, then transformed by dbt into hourly load forecasts that reflect historical weather.

Input Data

• Data Download
• Global Dataset Data Sources
• Data Validation with dsgrid
• Customizing Dataset Checks

Computation

• dbt Computation
• Weather Year Modeling
• Time Conventions
