NOTE: This map depicts areas of POTENTIAL visibility of open areas from the turbine hub (85m). Forested areas are assumed to have no visibility due to intervening vegetative cover. Not all turbines (or all parts of turbines) will be seen from each location. The map only accounts for topography and deciduous, coniferous, and mixed forest cover at an assumed height of 40 feet. The map does not account for other factors such as buildings and structures, actual tree height and density, site specific vegetation and/or removal, variations in eyesight, and atmospheric and weather conditions. Under certain conditions this map overstates where turbines will be seen from. Potential viewshed is based on GIS data available at the time from VCGI & VERA. Data is only as accurate as the original source and is not guaranteed by LandWorks.
