Hello, are there people outside who use R for analysis of wind-measurement data (meteorological or for planning of wind power stations)? Are there already scripts/modules available for analysing and displaying/plotting wind data in the way it is done in projection/planning of wind power stations? If not, would it be of interest to use R for this, and therefore adapt data-logger output to R (by providing certain data formats) or by providing R-modules for parsing of the data-logger files? Or would that better be done by connection to a RDBMS? Ciao, Oliver
Oliver, You may consider looking at the climatol: Some Tools for Climatology (cran.r-project.org) contributed package. This may come close to what you're looking for. I would suggest using R with GRASS GIS (grass.osgeo.org), which is a powerful combination.
