windkit.ltc.VarRatMCP.predict

VarRatMCP.predict(ds_ref, return_std=False, **kwargs)

Predict wind speed from the reference data.

Loops through sectors and predicts with the sector-specific model.

Parameters:

• ds_ref (xarray.Dataset) – Time series wind climate dataset.

• return_std (bool) – If True, return a tuple (ds_pred, std) where std is a flat array of residual standard deviations (one per element in the flattened wind speed array) mapped from the sector models. Default is False.

Returns:

Predicted wind speeds and directions. If return_std is True, a tuple (ds_pred, std) is returned instead.

Return type:

xarray.Dataset or tuple of (xarray.Dataset, numpy.ndarray)
