Verification statistic for numerical models

Description

A generalized wind estimate based on a limited number of uncertain field measurements is computed at each point in a given geographical region. A point-by-point comparison with a numerical model prediction of the wind field is then described. This comparison results in numerical assessments of the probability that the model succeeded in predicting the actual wind field and that the field measurements contain sufficient information on which to base such a comparison
