3TIER Releases First 5km World Wind Map
3TIER has unveiled a 5km resolution global wind map based upon the most accurate, consistent and comprehensive dataset of wind resources and their spatial and temporal variability ever created. It is the latest milestone in our REmapping the World initiative.
The dataset provides the information developers, financiers and governments need to target the best regions in the world for data collection and higher resolution studies.
To produce the map and dataset, 3TIER implemented an innovative physical-statistical model, and ran the model through a 10-year simulation. For more information, click here
A clickable version of the map, displaying average annual wind speed across the globe will be available for free in 3TIER’s FirstLook Prospecting tool in January 2009. Register now for notification of its release.
