    This document is a wind speed map of Ireland at 50 meters above sea level. It shows average wind speeds across the country measured in meters per second (m/s) and miles per hour (mph), with different color gradations indicating increasing speeds. The fastest winds are found along western coastal regions with speeds over 21.3 mph (9.5 m/s) while inland areas have slower speeds under 12.3 mph (5.5 m/s). Major cities are included for reference.

    Spatial Resolution of Wind Resource Data: 200m
    This map was created by TrueWind Solutions using the MesoMap
    system and historical weather data. Although it is believed to
    represent an accurate overall picture of the wind energy resource,
    estimates at any location should be confirmed by measurement.
