Wind Speed | NASA Earthdata NASA data shows wind speed at the ocean and land surface as well as in vertical profiles through the atmosphere Measuring how fast air moves across land, water, and through the atmosphere is a key component to understanding weather and its many forces and processes that shape our world, factor into the events of our days, and at times
Surface Winds | NASA Earthdata By studying these winds, scientists can learn more about ocean processes and improve predictions of extreme weather NASA’s available data products useful to the study of surface winds include average wind speed and direction, sea level pressure, and surface stress
Hurricane Intensity Estimator | NASA Earthdata Being able to accurately estimate a hurricane’s intensity is essential for disaster preparedness and response NASA's Deep learning-based Hurricane Intensity Estimator is an online platform that demonstrates the use of a machine learning model for estimating the wind speed of hurricanes

Atmospheric Winds | NASA Earthdata NASA’s data includes measurements of ocean surface wind speed and direction, vertical wind profiles, surface wind observations, and wind dynamics This data has many applications and is used for topics such as air quality research, tracking and understanding tropical cyclones, wildfire prediction and management, and examining climate processes
AMSR2 | NASA Earthdata NASA's AMSR2 provides data on global precipitation, ocean wind speed, water vapor, sea ice concentration, brightness temperature, and soil moisture
Using Machine Learning to Estimate the Intensity of Hurricane Ida The computer model estimated a peak wind speed of 129 knots, whereas the NHC estimated peak wind speed was 130 knots This is a strikingly close estimation for peak wind speeds from a machine learning technique, and it bodes well for the future of automated hurricane intensity estimation
Hurricanes | NASA Earthdata Hurricanes are one of the largest hazards to life and property on Earth Hurricanes are a rotating, tropical cyclone with a low pressure center (the eye) and 1-min average surface (10 m) winds in excess of 32 m s−1 (64 knots) in the Western Hemisphere
COWVR and TEMPEST V10 Datasets Available in First Public Release This graphic shows COWVR and TEMPEST wind speed and atmospheric moisture data collected during the so-called "bomb cyclone" (i e , a cyclonic storm that undergoes rapid intensification in a short period of time) that struck the Pacific Northwest on November 20, 2024
Sentinel-1C Ocean Product | NASA Earthdata The OWI component is a ground range gridded estimate of the surface wind speed and direction at 10 m above the surface, derived from SM, IW or EW modes The data products in this collection mirror the Sentinel-1C products provided through the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem
