Annual Average Wind Power density at 80m in Peru

Wind Energy Atlas of Peru shows the following wind maps: annual average of 50 m, 80 m and 100 m and 80 m monthly average; plus maps of annual average power density at 50 m, 80 m and 100 m and wind maps for each of the 24 regions, annual average and seasonal average of 80 m.

Techniques have been used mesoscale and microscale modeling, combined with the use of a sophisticated simulation model reproducing atmospheric wind patterns on a large scale, microscale wind model that responds to the characteristics of the terrain and topography. We used historical weather data sources related to a three-dimensional network generated by the US National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), plus bases geophysical input data, mainly elevation and land use, vegetation index values and climatological temperature seawater. Elevation data have been generated and compiled on a digital elevation model (DEM) under the project SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The land uses were obtained from the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer), with a resolution of 1 km.
