Windfarm siting algorithm

This project was a multi-criteria site evaluation on the Greek islands of Milos and Tinos, in view of recent discussions on windfarm development increasing local energy autonomy and reliability.

The analysis and cartography were carried out in ArcMap. A vector based approach was taken with discrete criteria like minimum wind speed, while Fuzzy Suitability was used to combine continuous criteria like visual impact in raster format. The workflow sequence was automated into a ModelBuilder geoprocessing tool.

The map features a multi-directional hillshade made using Terrain Tools, mosaiced with the thematic layer to avoid transparency colour muting. A simple corresponding web map on ArcGIS online was also made.
