Spatial Coverage of the GASP-Global datasets.
50yr Extreme Wind Speeds in 100m height at Tasmania, Australia. GASP data accessed through http://www.windPROSPECTING.com platform.
Wind Resouces in 100m height at Lillgrunden, Sweden. GASP data accessed through windPRO 3.5.

Introduction

"GASP Global" is short for "GASP 1.0 - Global of Atlas of Siting Parameters". It is a global atlas dataset with the following key features:

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

Dataset Overview

  • Spatial coverage:
    • Onshore: Near global (all land areas from N80 to S58)
    • Offshore: Areas are covered up to 200 km from the coastline
  • Resolution:
    • Horizontal: 250m in grid resolution
    • Vertical: 50m, 100m and 150m as vertical levels
  • 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 with a .siteres file acting as the data-container.
  • windPROSPECTING: GASP data is available through the data-tab named 'Site-prospecting'. Free access to windPROSPECTING - here.
  • EMD-API: Read more at the dedicated wiki-page for our Global Atlas Data Services - here. If you are accessing the GASP data from within the EMD-API, you will use the parameter group-names in order to request specific data-packages [resource-omni, resource-sector, siting-extremes, siting-fatigue-omni, siting-fatigue-sector, turbine-fatigue, turbine-fatigue-recommend, turbine-extreme, turbine-extreme-recommend].

Parameters and Dimensions

As seen from the tables below, a very wide range of omnidirectional and sectorwise parameters are available from the Global Atlas of Siting Parameters (GASP). These parameters have been divided into four main categories:

  1. Wind Resources / Atmospheric Parameters
  2. Siting Parameters – Fatigue
  3. Siting Parameters – Extremes
  4. Turbine Design Classification - with recommended turbine class

The tables below provides an overview of all parameters available and at which dimensions that they are available. We have used the following dimensions for the GASP parameters: The first four (longitude, latitude, height and sector) are used for the basic parameters; the last three (ws_class, iec_class and turbine_component) are used for the turbine design classification - and are releated to the IEC61400-1 code and the aeroelastic load model. Please note that not all dimensions are relevant or used for every GASP parameter.

Table: List of dimensions in GASP data.
Dimension Abbreviation Unit Range
longitude lon deg 180 to -180
latitude lat deg 90 to -90
height h m 50,100,150
sector s deg 0,30,...,330
ws_class wcl I,II,III,T
iec_class iecc IA+, IA,...IIIC
turbine_component tc 0,1,2,3

Parameters: Turbine Design – Loads

The four tables below show the GASP parameters for the turbine design classification. Two main groups are fatigue and extreme load cases, then divided into four data-groups so requests is possible for turbine load indexes and iec class recommendations: [turbine-fatigue, turbine-fatigue-recommend, turbine-extreme, turbine-extreme-recommend].
