Summary

This data set is a ZIP archive of the European Wind Atlas data disk; data set is described in Appendix D of the atlas:

The main results of the European Wind Atlas analysis – the regionally representative wind statistics for each station – are furnished on a disk at the back of the Atlas. The disk furthermore contains the wind speed data in the form of histograms. The disk is divided into a number of subdirectories corresponding to the EC12 countries. The subdirectories are named as the country codes given below:

B – Belgium

DK – Denmark

F – France

D – Germany (FRG)

GR – Greece

I – Italy

EI – Ireland

L – Luxembourg

NL – Netherlands

P – Portugal

E – Spain

GB – United Kingdom

Radiosonde statistics for all the countries are in a separate subdirectory with the name RS.

The Wind Atlas data are stored as sequential ASCII files with the file name extension LIB, and contain 48 lines/records of information. The contents of a file are shown schematically in Table D.1 of the European Wind Atlas.

The raw data are stored as sequential ASCII files with the file name extension TAB. The contents of a histogram file are shown schematically in Table D.2 of the European Wind Atlas.
