"WINDForest" project

The research project “WINDForest: Increasing the data quality of wind speeds over forested regions”, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport, was recently successfully completed. In the project, our flying wind measurement technology was optimized and expanded with a second wind measurement drone.  The wind measurements carried out with two simultaneously flying drones were used to develop and validate an AI model. This AI application is the first to project coarse-scale wind data onto small-scale topography data with forest cover in order to increase the local resolution.
