GASP Global

Introduction

GASP Global is "GASP 1.0 - Global of Atlas of Siting Parameters", with the following key features:

• Global 250m wind resources, siting parameters & turbine design class
• Builds on GWA3.0 and other sources
• A joint project by EMD and DTU

Dataset Overview

• Spatial coverage: Global (offshore areas are covered up to xx km from the coastline)
• Resolution: 250m
• Data-type: Atlas
• Coordinate system: Geographical coordinates (EPSG: 4326) in original data
• Version: 1.0

Availability from within EMD software

• windPRO: Click 'Data' -> 'Siting parameters (GASP etc)' to access the download tool. Data is loaded into a result layer.
• windPROSPECTING: GASP data is available through the data-tab named 'Site-prospecting'. Access to windPROSPECTING - here.
• EMD-API: Read more at the dedicated wiki-page for our Global Atlas Data Services - here.

Parameters

A very wide range of omnidirectional and sectorwise parameters are available from the Global Atlas of Siting Parameters (GASP) - including wind resources, extremes, siting parameters and turbine design classes. The tables below provides an overview of all parameters available and at which dimensions that they are available.

Dimensions

The following dimensions are used within the GASP parameters. Not all dimensions are relevant or used for every GASP parameter.
