RE: INTRODUCTION TO CARTOGRAPHY

Hey there, thanks for your comment!

You're absolutely right, that's an interesting example of how mappings can be useful in extracting topological and topographic information regarding the Earth's natural terrestrial surface. Keep in mind that 98% of winds on a given point of the Earth's surface blow in the same direction, this is also referred to as the prevailing wind.

Thanks for dropping by!

You are absolutely right. Wind farms are usually built putting into consideration this prevailing wind direction.

Although some are also based on non-prevailing wind directions.

It's really nice interacting with you @lordneroo. By the way, what's your discipline.

I have a Master's Degree in Rural & Surveying Engineering. :) And yours?

A Bachelors degree in Mechanical engineering
