All data is provided as is without any stringent quality control. Wind speed and direction measurements were made at an elevation of approximately 3.2 m above local ground level with an R.M. Young propellor anemometer (05106). Base wind data is sampled at a frequency of 10 Hz. Pressure measurements are sampled with a shrouded Vaisala pressure sensor (PTB110) at an elevation of approximately 1 m and sampled for the 1-minute period prior to the reporting time. Standardised wind speeds are estimates of the expected 10-minute mean and maximum 3-second gust within that period when standardised to an elevation of 10 m and located in flat open terrain conditions. Wind data are standardised in this way so they can be compared with Bureau of Meteorology observations, which are generally made under these conditions. However, note that standardised values are estimates only and should not be interpreted as measured values.
 
Local time:                                 Date and time in local standard time
Max 3-sec gust wind [km/h]:                 Maximum wind gust during the 10-minute mean period, with a gust defined as the average of wind measurements over a period of 3-seconds
Time of max gust:                           Time of maximum wind gust during the 10-minute time period
Max gust direction:                         Wind direction in degrees of the maximum 3-second wind gust
10-min mean wind [km/h]:                    Mean Wind speed in km/h averaged over the 10-minute period prior to the reporting time
Mean wind direction:                        Wind direction in degrees averaged over the 10-minute period
Standard deviation wind speed [km/h]:       Standard deviation of raw wind data over the 10-minute period
Station pressure [hPa]:                     Pressure measured in hPa at the tower and an elevation of approximately 1 m
Standardised 10-min mean wind [km/h]:       Recorded mean wind speed at 3.2 m adjusted to an estimate of the mean wind speed at an elevation of 10 m in open terrain using turbulence information measured at the tower and atmospheric boundary layer theory
Standardised max 3-sec gust wind [km/h]:    Recorded gust wind speed at 3.2 m adjusted to an estimate of the gust at an elevation of 10 m in open terrain using turbulence information measured at the tower and atmospheric boundary layer theory
