The Simple Unified KSC / USSF Eastern Range Wind Profile combines launch pad or nearby tall tower anemometers with a nearby 915 MHz boundary layer profiler and the KSC 48 MHz Tropospheric Doppler Radar Wind Profiler (TDRWP) to display the distribution of winds with height around the Kennedy Space Center. Depending upon mission profile winds are selected near the ground by the anemometers nearest the launch pad (or in some cases wind tower 313 which is 492 feet tall). Next the closest working boundary layer 915 MHz profiler winds are displayed. Lastly the TDRWP winds are used. This data is considered experimental and may not always be available. Display is not monitored routinely for timeliness or accuracy. Data is provided as a courtesy and not recommended for protection of life or property. Use at your own risk.
