Onshore wind farms, wind farms in the Pays de la Loire

A wind farm is composed of one or more wind turbines producing electricity. The definition of the wind farm has no administrative or regulatory basis. It is a purely abstract class corresponding to an aggregate of wind turbines. The polygonal geometry of a wind farm is only a proposed artifice to map wind turbines on a small scale. A wind farm is therefore represented by arbitrary boundaries and does not correspond to any administrative or material control over the land. Origin A wind farm is obtained from the wind permit to which it has been granted. The creation of wind farm data is done as the building permits are instructed and after all wind turbines in the same wind farm have been geolocated. The polygonal geometry of a wind farm is built from the georeferenced wind turbines belonging to this wind farm. Fleet modelling is performed automatically by a spatial function of the database, and is not subject to any subsequent manual correction. The dataset is directly connected to the SIGLOIRE website and its update is continuous.
