- albatross 🐦 https://github.com/camirmas/albatross A wind resource data retrieval, visualization, and analysis toolkit. `albatross` is a Python package designed for wind energy analysis and visualization. It utilizes NREL's Wind Integration National Dataset (WIND Toolkit) and REsource eXtraction (rex) package, and is inspired in part by a similar package aimed instead at Marine Renewable Energy, MHKiT. Features `albatross` consists of two primary modules: - `requests`: - Request WIND Toolkit data by lat/lon point via HSDS - Read WIND Toolkit data from a local HDF5 file - Identify WIND Toolkit region and associated lat/lon coordinates, given a lat/lon point - `analysis`: - Draw boxplots for inferred windspeed fields (or other specified fields) - Plot windrose chart for wind speed and direction data - Fit a Weibull distribution for wind speed data and plot a histogram/line chart showing probability density - Generate and/or plot diurnal statistics for wind speed data - Determine turbulence standard deviation using the Normal Turbulence model for wind data and a set of archetype wind turbine configurations Future enhancements: - multi-year requests - allow use of CSV for `analysis` module functions - further incorporate turbulence model statistics Documentation Documentation is hosted at Read The Docs. To build the documentation locally, run the following after installing development dependencies: cd docs make html Afterwards, open \_build/index.html in a browser. Installation `albatross` has not yet been hosted on PyPI, so for now, install from Github: pip install git+https://github.com/camirmas/albatross If you'll be using the `requests` module, you'll also need to configure HSDS. Usage After installation, run Jupyter notebook `Usage.ipynb` for fully detailed examples. Development For development, simply clone the repository, install dependencies, and run tests. git clone git@github.com:camirmas/albatross.git pip install -r requirements.txt pytest
