Average Wind Speeds 2001 to 2010-125 m above ground level

Mean average wind speeds in metres per second (m/s) at 125 m above ground level. These datasets cover the geographic land area of Ireland and Irish Internal Waters. Data Compilation was completed in 2013, by analysing measurements taken during 2001-2010. Zipped collections of shapefiles are available in two Spatial reference or coordinate systems: 1) Irish transverse Mercator (ITM, EPSG:2157) 2) WGS 84 Web Mercator (EPSG:3857) The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) offers the same data in its Wind Atlas, a digital map of Ireland’s wind energy resource (http://gis.seai.ie/wind). SEAI’s wind speed datasets assist wind energy Planners, developers and policymakers.本数据集为海拔125米处的平均风速数据，单位为米每秒（m/s），覆盖爱尔兰陆地领土及爱尔兰内水区域。数据汇编工作于2013年完成，基于2001年至2010年间的实测观测数据开展分析。 该数据集提供两种空间参考坐标系下的压缩形状文件（shapefile）合集： 1) 爱尔兰横轴墨卡托投影（Irish transverse Mercator, ITM, EPSG:2157） 2) WGS 84网络墨卡托投影（EPSG:3857） 爱尔兰可持续能源署（Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, SEAI）在其风能图谱（Wind Atlas）——爱尔兰风能资源数字化地图中提供了同款数据，该图谱的访问网址为http://gis.seai.ie/wind。SEAI的风速数据集可助力风能规划人员、开发者与政策制定者开展相关工作。
