Synthetic Hurricane Track Database
WindRiskTech uses two largely independent
methods to generate very large (~10,000) numbers of hurricane tracks whose
significant statistical properties match those of historical events. Tracks can
be generated in any ocean basin, and filtered so as to pass within a
specified radius of a geographic point of interest. Tracks are characterized
by date, latitude and longitude every two hours.
Hurricane Wind Field Database
WindRiskTech runs an advanced, coupled ocean-atmosphere
hurricane intensity model over each of the synthetic tracks it generates.
This model, which is used by the U.S. government as guidance for operational hurricane
intensity prediction, provides a storm wind field at each point along the
storm track. Output can be used to generate statistically robust wind speed
probability distributions for geographic points or regions of interest.
Deliverables
For each track we provide
at two hour intervals detailed storm information, including date and time,
center position, maximum surface wind speed, radius of maximum winds, and
environmental wind shear. Data is formatted to meet the needs of our clients
and can be delivered over the internet or on CD-ROM.
