Vast Wind Data Analytics Potential at your Fingertips
Data and insight for every stage across the entire wind development project at your fingertips whenever you need it.
Introducing Wind AXIOM
Wind AXIOM is a new insight platform that helps wind developers explore high-value areas, prepare bids and develop leases. With easy access to vast amounts of data and advanced analytical tools, Wind AXIOM liberates wind development from spreadsheets and finally takes it to another level - an integrated data map.
Why Wind AXIOM?
Complete
Getting your hands on the right data for site-specific analysis is cumbersome. Through Wind AXIOM, we aggregate data from multiple sources, refine it, make it comparable, and add high-quality insights. As a result, Wind AXIOM offers the industry's most complete data and insight platform for wind feasibility studies.
Convenient
Managing huge files from different sources is a complicated and expensive task. Wind AXIOM takes that burden away. We have developed a platform that provides easy access to vast amounts of site-specific data in the cloud, cost-effective and secure.
Fast
Wind AXIOM is lightning fast. In our application, you might calculate energy and revenue outputs up to 90% faster than with previous technologies. Draw a lease on a map, select your data layers of choice, and complete your site assessment. What used to take days is done within seconds.
Experienced
TGS, one of the world's leading providers of data and insight to the energy industry, developed Wind AXIOM. We understand the complexity of energy projects and have helped wind market players succeed for more than 20 years. With Wind AXIOM, we have developed a unique platform to contribute to the industry's success and a common goal: the energy transition.

Partner Data
TGS is working with 3E to further increase model-derived resources in key offshore lease areas, including the US, Norway and other offshore wind leasing roadmap locations. 3E’s Virtual Met Mast (VMM) product provides an ideal substitute for real-world observations where measurements are yet to be acquired and operators demand high-time resolution long-term time series. Pre-computed VMM time series are provided in Wind AXIOM as an add-on for existing subscribers.
- 10mn microscale time series generated at the highest horizontal resolution of 30x30m
- Available anywhere across the globe, for your onshore and offshore projects
- Any height from 10m to 300m, allowing shear calculation
- Any selectable period with a duration of up to 30 years.
- Computed at lightning speed: in less than 24h
- Includes wind speed, wind direction, air density, turbulence intensity and many others.
- Validated extensively against onshore and offshore measurements
- High performance against reanalysis models such as ERA5, NEWA
