Description:
Several variables important to Offshore Wind Planning summarized by BOEM Aliquot (1.2 x 1.2 km grid). Variables include wind speed, AIS vessel traffic, distance to shore, depth and slope.

The wind speed dataset is based on the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) 2020 modeled wind speed at 110 meters above the sea surface for California, Oregon and Washington. The Center for Geospatial Science & Technology (CGST) from California State University Northridge summarized the data by BOEM aliquot for annual average wind speed and number of months with wind speeds above 7 meters per second.
