Preliminary wind resource maps for Mexico were made by using hourly wind speed data for the year 2005, obtained by means of the MM5 program at 50 meters height every 9 kilometers. Extrapolation of wind speed at 80 meters was performed by using the power law with an exponent of 1/7. Subsequently, the velocity values obtained every 9 kilometers were interpolated each 1 kilometer. The wind resource maps are available on the IIE's website at 50 and 80 meters height on a monthly and yearly basis, for wind speed and power density.

DTU Global Wind Atlas: onshore and 30 km offshore wind climate dataset accounting for high resolution terrain effects. The Global Wind Atlas provides a high resolution wind climatology at 50, 100, 200m hub heights above the surface for the whole world (onshore and 30 km offshore). These layers have been produced using microscale modelling in the Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program (WAsP) and capture small scale spatial variability of winds speeds due to high resolution orography (terrain elevation), surface roughness and surface roughness change effects. The layers shared through the IRENA Global Atlas are served at 1km spatial resolution. The full Atlas contains data at a higher spatial resolution of 250 m, some of the IRENA Global Atlas tools access this data for aggregated statistics. Original website: http://globalwindatlas.com/ Data quality and validation: The layers have been produced by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Department of Wind Energy (DTU Wind Energy), using state-of-the art scientifically verified models and methods (Report accessible: http://globalwindatlas.com/).
