The validation of satelite-based wind speed maps to in-situ data record

Recently, wind-induced damages related to structure have been concerning in the community. Meanwhile, the problem rises among the structural designers because the wind speed information is scarce in some places. The satellite-based wind speed information over the sea could be found from the publi...

The main objective of this study is to validate the satellitebased wind speed maps to in-situ data records. The specific objectives are as follows; to obtain in-situ wind speed data from Malaysia Meteorology Department (MMD) and satellite-based wind speed from public domain, to analyse the satellite-based wind speed data at in-situ wind speed station, to compare the analysed satellite-based wind speed data with the correspond in-situ wind speed value.

Wind speed data from the satellite were analysed based on topography effect according to Malaysian standard MS 1553: 2002 and terrain category. The topography information had been obtained from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data product.
