WAsP – the Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program

What's new in WAsP 10?

The main new feature in WAsP 10 is the ability to view your project in Google Earth. Most of the information you can display in a spatial view can be shown in Google Earth, and you can maintain a synchronised display: changes in your project will be automatically reflected in Google Earth. The following data can be shown in Google Earth:

  • Roughness change lines
  • Non-attribute lines
  • Turbine positions and 3D models
  • Met. mast positions and 3D models
  • Reference site positions and 3D models
  • Wind and AEP roses etc.
  • Resource grid data
  • Turbine bubble info

 

Other changes include the following:

  • Importing a spatial image (background map) has been greatly simplified
  • Air density is now a project parameter, and affects all power density values
  • Resource grid calculation masks can be derived from elevation limits and the vector map
  • Reference sites can be quickly inserted to match existing turbine sites
  • Distance circles (size n rotor diameters) around turbines can be shown in the spatial view
  • Several new scripts are added, including 'vertical slice'
  • Sample data can be installed to anywhere you like
  • Spatial images can be exported to file with accompanying scaling information
  • Updated default parameter set
  • Stability routine corrected

 

WAsP 10 also contains a number of new and updated tools:

  • A new Gaussian hill generator tool
  • A new Geo-projection utility tool
  • A new Lib Interpolator tool
  • A new Weibull Explorer tool
