A New Generation of Sodar
Triton Sonic Wind Profiler

The Wind Industry's Market-Leading Remote Sensing System

Sodar and remote sensing - why they are neededSecond Wind's Triton Sonic Wind Profiler is an advanced sodar system that provides accurate wind data across the entire blade sweep of today's largest wind turbines. With over 150 Triton sodar systems in use and an equivalent of over 100 years of operation, Triton is the wind industry's market-leading remote sensing system.

Tritons are being used for wind resource assessment programs, for greenfield prospecting, micro-siting and turbine suitability, measuring wind speed and direction shear, and other applications.

  • Measures wind speed, direction, and other data up to 200 meters
  • Ultra-low, 7 Watt power consumption enables continuous, unattended operation.
  • Data access and monitoring via SkyServe web portal
  • Easy to deploy — can be installed and collecting data within 2 hours
  • Over 150 Tritons in use worldwide, with an average uptime of 98.5%

I think there is a great future for remote sensing. The combination of well validated SODAR devices and traditional anemometry is a very good one and GL Garrad Hassan is already using remote sensing data in combination with conventional methods and data.
