WindSight - Premium Data Layers by DHI GRAS
Introduction
New methods to use satellite-based data in the wind-energy flow modelling chains and to integrate those into wind-energy yield assessments. That was the goal of the InnoWind project that took place during years 2017-2020 and where EMD International A/S formed a project partnership with the Technical University of Denmark, DHI-GRAS, Vestas and Vattenfall, see more at www.innowind.dk. The project was finalized in spring 2020 with a lot of fast-track derived data-products being available directly in windPRO, see our [[:Category:InnoWind|InnoWind] wiki page. During the project, DHI-GRAS has developed its "DHI-GRAS InnoWind Premium Data Service". This service allows DHI-GRAS to deliver data-layers of forest-height, land-cover and leaf-area-index in 20m resolution – based on Sentinel 1 and Sentinel 2 source data - with data layers derived using machine-learning algorithms. These data are easily read with windPRO – as they are typically delivered in geotiff-format. Users that is interested in this products may contact DHI-GRAS for further details, see www.dhi-gras.com
