The Environment Canada Atmospheric Environment Service measured wind speed at hundreds of locations in Canada. Based on these measurements, it has calculated the average annual wind speed at each of these locations and has produced a Canada Wind Map. You can find the wind map at | www.windatlas.ca

It is important that you answer the three following questions :
	What is the average annual wind speed at the site, at a given distance off the ground?
	What are the fluctuations in average wind speed depending on height?
	How long are the periods for which a given wind speed and frequency lasts?

It is recommended that you use an anemometer to determine the wind speeds in your area.
