METEO Module

Advanced wind data analysis made simple

The METEO module is a powerful wind energy software tool for wind data analysis. Apart from being a very user-friendly wind energy software tool, it has all the required features for daily quality checks during monitoring, as well as for data cleaning and correction after monitoring.

Turn complex wind data into clear insights

Easy and Intelligent Data Import

Easily import any kind of dataset automatically or manually.

Import wind data from virtually any source:

  • Automatic or manual format detection
  • Compatible with Ammonit, NRG, Leosphere, Zephir, and more
  • Supports ASCII files, binary files, and online data sources

Data types supported:

  • Wind speed & direction
  • Turbulence intensity
  • Temperature, timestamps, and more

METEO easily handles multiple heights and datasets in one object, allowing side-by-side comparison and in-depth graphical analysis.

Data Repair & Cleaning

Identify and correct issues such as:

  • Sensor malfunctions
  • Tower shading
  • Icing and low signal-to-noise ratio

Key Features:

  • Flag or disable problematic data
  • Apply scaling, offsets, or time shifts
  • Auto-fill missing data with substitute values or windPRO data

All visualizations allow intuitive filtering and editing directly within graphs and charts.

Global Wind Data Downloads

Quickly download global wind datasets directly within METEO, including:

  • ERA5, MERRA2, CFSR, NARR
  • EMD WRF Mesoscale Datasets (3 km/hourly resolution)
  • On-demand global mesoscale service

Use this data to:

  • Reference or validate local measurements
  • Fill gaps or correct long-term data with MCP techniques

In-Depth Wind Data Analysis

METEO makes advanced analysis simple:

  • Shear and turbulence profiling
  • Diurnal and seasonal patterns
  • Wind roses, directional distributions, Weibull fitting

With the built-in METEO ANALYZER:

  • Compare data across masts and heights
  • Cross-predict wind conditions at different locations
  • Prepare for PARK module simulations with WAsP or WTI files

Generate Data

Use METEO to calculate wind turbine performance:

  • Gross and net energy output
  • Capacity factor at different hub heights
  • Adjust for shear, air density, and site-specific conditions

Supports 3 types of wind data input:

  1. Weibull fit
  2. Measured frequency table
  3. Time series integration

Includes automatic height correction and local climate adjustments via embedded databases or local

Professional Reporting

Document and present your wind data insights with ease:

  • Export graphs and tables to Excel, PNG, or PDF
  • Choose from predefined templates or customize your own

Available reports include:

  • Data summary and radar charts
  • Time series, Weibull fits, wind roses
  • Turbulence and energy production analysis
  • Full METEO object and calculation reports
