In developing renewable energy sites, wind- and solar farms. Accurate data refined by professionals of environment and biology is a must to meet responsibility and sustainability goals. Usually this means (atleast in the nordics) that the expert must go collect the data in the field on the summertime and crunch it back at the office to be able to make good recommendations and plans. Open data can guide the work but not replace the field work. What would it be worth to project development to have allready crunched data so your inhouse expert can just look at the data visually on the map and tell wheter the plan is sustainable or not?
