Second Wind's Triton Wind Profiler and Nomad Data Logger collect and compile information on wind up to 200 meters above ground level, creating large and detailed data sets. Mistaya Engineering's Windographer software plots and analyzes wind data, enabling users to spot patterns, improve data quality and predict wind turbine performance more accurately, according to the companies.
Second Wind has added a key to its SkyServe wind data management portal that enables users to export Triton and Nomad data directly to Windographer, with no custom coding or formatting.
Windographer helps users manage Triton data on import by automatically identifying wind speed data columns, wind direction and measurement heights. The software also flags and filters data points below a set quality threshold, plots vertical wind-speed profiles, and provides analysis tools for meteorological events such as inverse shear and low-level jets.
The two companies also plan to integrate Windographer with Second Wind's SkyServe satellite wind data service, which provides remote monitoring of Triton and Nomad units.
