Global Wind Atlas Web Processing Service is one of 7 APIs that [Technical University of Denmark](https://apis.io/providers/dtu/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Wind Energy, Geospatial, OGC, WPS, and Research Computing. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

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.
