MARINE ENVIRONMENTAL DATA INTEGRATED ACQUISITION PLATFORM FOR OFFSHORE WIND FARM DEVELOPMENT

抄録

A marine environmental data integrated acquisition platform (abbreviated MIA) was developed for offshore wind farms as a joint project of five companies in Nagasaki, Japan. The MIA consists of a spar type floater system, a Doppler LIDAR for assessment of wind power resources and sensors for assessment of animal habitat status. Demonstration test of the MIA was carried out on this newly developed platform off the Goto Islands in Nagasaki, and the practical use has been confirmed. In this paper, the authors introduce the specifications, capabilities and part of the field test results of the MIA.
