Cloud cover can be one of the basic climatic data forming indoor climate because it has strong influence on the solar radiation, night radiation and atmospheric temperature. So the author investigates the statistical characteristics of hourly cloud cover data using 1966 to 1975 data of Kagoshima, standard weather data of Sendai, Tokyo, Osaka and Kagoshima and confirms that most of them for the 4 points are similar to each other. Then the simulation program is developed for generating hourly cloud cover data during a year. The statistical characteristics obtained from the measured cloud cover data are used as imput data for the simulation. It is verified that the statistical characteristics of generated data almost agree with imput data by the test simulation about Kagoshima.
