Description
These data represents the predicted mean annual wind speeds at 90 m height presented at a spatial resolution of 200 m. Areas with annual average wind speed of 7 meters per second (m/s) and greater at 90 m height are generally considered to have a wind resource suitable for offshore development. The source data is from 2002 through 2008.
