Title: cenam_50mwind
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Other_Citation_Details:
The wind power resource estimates were produced by TrueWind Solutions using their MesoMap system and historical weather data under contract to Wind Powering America/NREL. This map has been validated with available surface data by NREL and wind energy meteorological consultants.
Description:
Abstract:
Annual average wind resource potential for Central America at a 50 meter height.
Purpose:
Provide information on the wind resource development potential within Central America.
Supplemental_Information:
This data set has been validated by NREL and wind energy meteorological consultants. However, the data is not suitable for micro-siting potential development projects. This shapefile was generated from a raster dataset with a 200 m resolution, in a UTM zone 12, datum WGS 84 projection system.
