Missing ERA5 data

PreviousLong-term representativenessNextMaximum domain size

Last updated 5 months ago

In the meso domain, Whiffle utilizes ERA5 historical weather data, which is readily available for areas within the supported regions delineated by the yellow line on the map. You have the option to run a simulation from January 1, 2000, up to ten days ago. Presently, the maximum duration for a simulation run is one year.

Should you desire to conduct a simulation outside the supported regions, we encourage you to submit a special request. Our team is dedicated to helping you customize our services to suit your unique requirements. Feel free to contact us, and we will diligently work to accommodate your needs effectively.

Troubleshooting

  • Position turbines and metmasts within the delineated Supported regions marked by the yellow border on the map so meso domain is contained by it.

Yellow border on the map indicates the Supported regions
Meso domain should be inside the polygon designated by the yellow border
