wind roses of the annual hours in % from station measurements for Germany at a height of approx. 10 m
Based on hourly averages of the wind, multi-year strength wind roses (at least strength wind roses with an annual reference) are created. In order to be able to make representative statements about the wind conditions at a station with the help of a starch wind rose, conditions regarding data availability, continuity of the measuring site, homogeneity of the measuring method and a uniform sensor height per site were taken into account.
These data originate from stations of the DWD and legally and qualitatively equivalent partner network stations.

- Specific usage
-
The quality of the starch wind roses depends on the quality of the station readings. These are subjected to a continuous quality check. The stations were selected according to WMO criteria.

- Explanation
-
All offered measuring stations meet parameter-related homogeneity and inventory criteria, i.e. no station relocation is permitted during the evaluation period, for example. In addition, a data stock of at least 90% is guaranteed for the reference years.

These data are obtained from the station measuring networks of the German Weather Service. For more detailed information on the current observation and measurement procedures, see VuB 3 Observer Manual (DWD, 2014a), VuB 3 Technician Manual (DWD, 2014b) and VuB 2 Weather Key Manual (DWD, 2013).The stations are set up and operated according to WMO regulations.
