Wind map is calculated, by simulating the atmosphere conditions with SKIRON mesoscale model. GFS 12 UTC cycle, from NCAR/NCEP is used as input. The period simulated is since June-2003 until June-2012. SKIRON long-term simulation is launched to cover the entire 9 years, generating hourly maps to the entire simulated period. With this output Iraq wind map is computed averaging 30 meters wind speed from the nine years. Typically the grid horizontal resolution is 0,05 x 0.05 and has 50 vertical levels
