The average wind speeds indicated onthis map are model-derived estimatesthat may not represent the true windresource at any given location. Smallterrain features, vegetation, buildings,and atmospheric effects may causethe wind speed to depart from themap estimates. Expert advice shouldbe sought in placing wind turbinesand estimating their energyproduction.
