The wind resource estimates on this map were developed by True WindSolutions in 2002 using MesoMap, a mesoscale atmospheric simulationsystem, at a spatial resolution of 400 meters (1/4 mile). The estimateshave been validated by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)and independent meteorologist but should be confirmed by directmeasurement according to wind energy industry standards.
