The windPRO online-data team at EMD has just released a 2022 version of the “windPRO Global Satellite Imagery – 10m” dataset. This dataset supplements the 2018 release which is still available. The new 2022 version is of higher quality and has fewer clouds compared to the 2018 version. You can add it as a background […]
windPRO now includes an option to run WakeBlaster, a new wake model. WakeBlaster is a numerical solver of the 3-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier Stokes equations, specialized in wind turbine wakes. But what is new? No more superposition: Instead of modelling single turbine wakes and superimposing them empirically, WakeBlaster models the whole waked wind field in […]
A map of the forest heights for Denmark – derived from a dataset developed by the Danish University of Copenhagen – Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management – is now available as an online data service for users of windPRO 3.3+. If you are working at forested sites in Denmark, then you can use […]
Two high-quality digital elevation models (DTM’s) in 5m and 20m resolution and covering the German state of Brandenburg have now been added to the online-services of windPRO 3.3. These elevation models are adapted versions of higher resolution models obtained by aerial surveys with data source from Landesvermessung und Geobasisinformation Brandenburg (LGB). Read more at our […]
On behalf of the InnoWind project team, Morten L. Thøgernsen from EMD will be presenting this topic at the Winterwind conference in Åre, Sweden next week. The presentation will take place on Tuesday February 4th at 11:00-12:30. As wind-analysts, the setup and calibration of a land-surface model are important first steps to simulate the flow […]
Now windPRO users developing wind farms in Latvia have easy access to a comprehensive package with very high-resolution Latvian national geodata. The data is available through the online-data services in windPRO 3.3+ and includes national elevation model (20m resolution) and forest height data (5m resolution, currently with spatial coverage of about half of Latvia). Topographic […]
windPRO users developing wind farms in Finland are now able to access a comprehensive package with very high-resolution Finnish national geodata. The data is easily reached through the online-data services in windPRO 3.2+. Available data includes full Finnish coverage of: The national elevation model (10m resolution), forest height data (16m resolution) and existing wind turbine […]
On request from windPRO users working on offshore wind farm developments around the globe, the online-data services in windPRO 3.2+ now offers two bathymetry models: One with Pan-European coverage and grid resolution 230m; the other with global coverage and at a coarser 1km grid-resolution. Water depth data are accessed from the elevation-grid object – with […]
2023-11-27@10:30-12:50: Online data services through windPRO, energyPRO and EMD-API have been down due to a network outage from our service-provider, Netic. Services have been restored, but may be unstable. Luckily this happens very rarely – but do feel free to contact our support hotline in case you experience any further issues support@emd.dk
We have updated the windPRO online-data services with the newest version of the “EMODnet Digital Bathymetry (DTM)”. This dataset is a combination of many surveys that cover the water depths for Europe’s sea basins. The 2022-release is a revised version of the 2020, 2018 and 2016 datasets – with more surveys included (21937 in total […]
