This website represents “Version 1.0” of an Offshore Wind & Wildlife Research Planning Map.

The Research Planning Map displays the locations (points, transects, areas) where wildlife and environment data are being collected to support offshore wind research.

This version of the map is incomplete and does not represent all the ongoing research and data collection activities with respect to offshore wind. Learn more about the plan to build and maintain this tool and other components of the offshore wind data landscape.

How to? View the recording of an RWSC public webinar that demonstrates how to use the map and why it was created.
