As we notified earlier, the preliminary ERA5T data from a 3-month period ranging from Sep-Nov 2021 (and probably also part of December) will differ from the final, validated ERA5 data. Now, final and validated ERA5 data for additional months of Oct-Nov 2021 have been made available in windPRO and EMD-API. Based on the newly available […]
Get all the data needed to plan a wind energy project. All seamlessly downloaded through windPRO.
ERA5 reanalysis data is used as a key source in many of our renewable energy applications – and it is surely also a major component within windPRO climate and mesoscale datasets. Since this summer – more recent data has been made available at an earlier time since the data-delivery in some cases has decreased from […]
Updated 2019 forest height data for Finland – derived from the recent LUKE “Multi-source National Forest Inventory Raster Maps of 2019” (released in 2021) – is now available as an online data service for users of windPRO 3.5. If you are working at forested sites, then within Finland, you can use these forest height data […]
EMD has evaluated the annual tree-growth using the recent Finnish LUKE data from 2021 comparing it to 2015 data. As seen from graph below, average tree growth is positive for trees with a height to about 15m, then it becomes negative (on average) due to tree-felling and active forestry. Only areas marked with “Forest” as […]
As of today, windPRO users working with offshore wind farms now have free access to updated versions of the GEBCO (Global) and EMODnet (European) bathymetry datasets. Within the 2020-version of the European EMODnet bathymetry the number of contributing surveys has almost doubled from 9400 to 16360. Likewise, the GEBCO 2021 bathymetry data is also updated […]
A high-resolution digital terrain model (DTM) for the German Bundesland of Saxony (Sachsen) is now released as a part of the online data services for users of windPRO 3.3. This dataset originates from detailed annual laser-scans of Saxony – years 2008-2019. Here, the native DTM grid resolution is at 1m or 2m. For such DTM […]
