Description

This is supplemental data to the 50 m height data set that was validated by NREL and wind energy meteorological consultants in 2007. The data is not suitable for micro-siting potential development projects. This shapefile was generated from a raster dataset with a 200 m spatial resolution, in a UTM zone 19, datum WGS 84 projection system.The wind power resource estimates were produced by AWS TrueWind using their MesoMap system and historical weather data under contract to Wind Powering America/NREL.
