Nature of Service:

Experimental

Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:

The mobile radar systems will be used to analyze the complex wind flow regime over a wind farm in Iowa. Range of interest is less than 15 kilometers and will be localized within the wind farm Approximate location of the experiment is: 33.75N latitude, -100.978W longitude. This experiment is to conduct research analyzing the complex wind flows within a wind farm. Vehicles will be traveling between multiple wind farm locations, each of which we have requested STA licensing for the duration of the experiments.
