EMD International offers access to the ERA Data set, either through time series in WindPRO, or as a dataset to the MesoMap online service.

Resolution and Coverage

The model grid is 0.702 degree latitude and 0.703 degree longitude.
It holds 4 daily values in a period from 1979 until present.
Coverage is global.

Required modules/licenses

To access the ERA time series data the following licenses/modules are required in your WindPRO setup:

  • Basis
  • METEO
  • MCP

Downloading of data is unrestricted for licenced users, however a "fair use" policy applies.

Dataset Parameters

The following parameters are available in the downloadable time series.
