2 In the previous lecture... What data you need What you use it for This hour: where to get data from

3 Introduction OWT Design Procedure Fatigue Loads Extreme Loads Site-specific environmental data

4 Introduction OWT Design Procedure Installation Maintenance Site-specific environmental data

5 Introduction Instantly available environmental conditions Not on Site Location Different Sources to choose from What to do?" Case Study

6

7 Source: C-Map Location Offshore Windpark Egmond aan Zee

8 Look for Data Sources Which data sources are available? Measurements Satellite observations Hind-cast data

9 Measurements Wave buoy

10 Measurements Step gauge electrical resistance

11 Measurements Laser or radar altimetry reflection

12 Measurements Dutch National Institute for Coastal and Marine Management Since locations Free to download through Internet:

13

14 Measurements Real data Freely available Long periods of measurements Wind data not always included Only few locations

15 Measurements Similar monitoring projects in other countries National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Agency

16 Data Sources IJmuiden Munitie Stortplaats Meetpost Noordwijk

17 Data Sources There are more data sources available! Satellite observations Hind-cast data

18 Satellite World-wide measurements Less accuracy Not continuous
