problem with Importing wind turbine location data file was created by nikhil katta
I am working on a wind project for salina KS, and want to optimize the turbine location base on the wind velocity and directions. The optimized coordinates was found (file attached). But SAM couldn't import data and gives an error notice.

Any Other way to input my Turbine location data?

Dear Nikhil,

SAM does not recognize the file because of the 'x' and 'y' in the first row. The turbine layout file should not have a header row. Please try deleting the first row, and then SAM should be able to import the data.

Best regards,
Paul.
