Global Wind Atlas Web Processing Service

An OGC Web Processing Service 1.0.0 serving Global Wind Atlas results. The GetCapabilities document names DTU Wind Energy as the ows:ServiceProvider, with a Risø Campus, Roskilde address and a dtu.dk service contact, so the service is DTU-operated even though it is published on the project domain globalwindatlas.info rather than under dtu.dk. Fees are declared "None" and access constraints "none". Eight processes are offered, including get_libfile (a WAsP generalized wind climate for the nearest pixel), get_rose, get_spatial_stats, get_area_mean, get_temporal_stats, get_timeseries and get_aep. The Global Wind Atlas is a partnership between DTU's Department of Wind and Energy Systems and the World Bank Group.
