What Is a Wind Resource Assessment?

Accurate wind resource assessment plays a critical role in developing successful wind farms. To evaluate site feasibility and automate your analysis and report generation requirements, you may need to perform the following tasks:

• Import measured data recorded from a wind data logger
• Perform data quality assurance tests and correct for erroneous conditions, including sensor icing and overload
• Visualize wind frequency and turbulence intensity with rose plots
• Model wind turbine performance at multiple tower heights
• Share customized reports of wind resource assessment results
