Therefore, a comprehensive site assessment is necessary to minimize investment risks. This is usually based on stationary long-term measurements supplemented by CFD simulations to analyse the spatial wind speed distribution. Despite being under intensive research, significant uncertainties remain for these simulations, especially in complex terrain. The aim of this thesis is the development of a measurement procedure for the acquisition and evaluation of the spatial wind situation over any terrain. For this purpose, a multirotor is equipped with an ultrasonic anemometer, combined with a system for error compensation and successfully validated in hover flight to a stationary anemometer. The flight and measurement strategy necessary for the acquisition of spatial distributions is optimized in a simulated parameter study. Finally, the system is applied in a virtual measurement campaign to evaluate several complex sites with respect to their wind energy potential. %F PUB:(DE-HGF)11 %9 Dissertation / PhD Thesis %R 10.18154/RWTH-2025-00812 %U https://publications.rwth-aachen.de/record/1002990
