Mesoscale Wind Maps

EMD offers to generate an EMD-WRF mesoscale wind map with time series for a customer defined area. This provides easy visualization, overview and prospecting for high wind resource areas.

Wind maps inclusive of time series can be ordered for a 5, 10 or 20-year period, using ERA5, ERA-Interim, MERRA-2 or CFSR/CFSv2 boundary data. The wind map is supplied in a 3 km / hourly resolution as standard.

Temporal domain, boundary data and spatial domain can be selected through the quotation tool below.

Details

• Anywhere in the world – both onshore and offshore
• Spatial view of the calculated wind map through the free windPROSPECTING platform
• Time series: Wind speed/direction and turbulence in 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200 meters.
• Time series: Temperature in 2 and 100 meters.
• Time series: Detailed solar radiation
• Time series: Surface pressure, humidity, precipitation, visibility, cloud cover, MOL etc.

Optional

As an optional consultancy service, EMD offers to downscale your wind map to a resolution of 100 to 200 meter or include wind data from met masts in the model setup calibration. Contact our wind energy consultancy department for further information and prices.
