Wind Polygon Multiple Countries 50m Riso-DTU 2008

SRID 900913 of two available coordinate systems.

These data are results from the KAMM/WASP studies. Version 2 is an updated version of the earlier release and includes an adjustment to Weibull A and k to bring

the Atlas values into better agreement with observations. The KAMM/WAsP methodology uses a set of wind classes to represent wind conditions for the mapped region. A mesoscale simulation for each wind class, using KAMM (Karlsruhe

Mesoscale Model), is performed and statistics performed on the model

output. The result is i. a wind resource map, a summary of the simulated

wind climate, and ii. a wind atlas, a summary of the wind climate

standardized to flat, uniform roughness terrain.

(Purpose): The product is intended to be used to

estimate the wind resource potential in the country including the the

spatial variability. This map covers regions where long term

measurements are not available. In a sense this is the point of the

mapping exercise, but it also means that verification of results has not

been as complete would be ideal. There is some concern that the results

may underestimate the resource. However, new measurement data is coming

and revisions to the map may be made if necessary as verification is

carried out.
