Daily sky type

Summary

Characterize daily sky type.

Current behavior

None : the sky type is computed for each time step but there is no daily synthesis.

Desired behavior

Find a way to characterize the daily overall sky type.

Average of sky type ID and pick closest value ? E.g. :

Hour Sky type
08:00:00 1
09:00:00 1
10:00:00 4
11:00:00 4
12:00:00 4
13:00:00 4
14:00:00 4
15:00:00 4
16:00:00 4
17:00:00 1
18:00:00 1

The sky values change during the day and average to 2.9

-> closest sky type is 4 (in the list of the sky types we use for sky type characterization)

-> the day would be "overall: intermediate overcast"
