Speedwell Weather offers subscribers centralised access to a wide choice of gridded data series. These data sets can be used to provide data points for a wide range of weather variables anywhere in the world. Multiple data sets are available built from a mixture of ground observations, satellite data and forecast-reanalysis data. We are able to advise on suitability of given data sets for specific applications.
Access to gridded data can be provided through our SWS system, a website single-point download tool, FTP delivery or (coming soon) via API.
In addition to providing a central-point source of multiple data sets at their "native" resolutions, we are also able to provide proprietary data sets including high-resolution data sets for some variables. We offer "Synthetic Wind Farm Benchmarks" which use gridded wind data and wind turbine power curves to generate a synthetic time series designed to replicate actual power output. These are used in risk-transfer.
