Getting to know the Vind AI interface
Before you dive in, here's a quick overview of how Vind AI is laid out. Each zone has a specific purpose, from the tools on the left to the analysis panel on the right. You'll get familiar with all of these as you work through the checklist.
What this step is about
Before you can explore layouts or run scenarios, Vind AI needs to know where your project is located. Your park area is the geographic boundary that anchors everything else in the platform from layouts, simulations, to comparisons all work within it.
In your tutorial project, we've already added a park area and a turbine layout so you can see Vind AI in action straight away. You can use this as-is, or replace it with your own area at any point.
Your starting point
We recommend starting with the pre-added tutorial area, it's already on the map and ready to go, so you can see Vind AI in action straight away.
If you'd prefer to work with your own site from the start, you can upload a boundary file or draw your park area directly on the map.
How to define your park area
The map will load with the pre-added park boundary already visible, this is your starting point.
If you want to work with your own site, select Upload to add a park boundary file or Area to draw a polygon directly on the map.
Your boundary will appear on the map in the same branch as the tutorial area.
Once you can see your project area on the map, you're ready to move on.
Good to know
Can't find the tutorial area? Locate the Elements list in the bottom-left corner and click on the park boundary from there.
Everything lives in the same project, uploading your own boundary doesn't replace the tutorial area, it adds to the same map.
Supported file formats for upload include GeoJSON, KML, and Shapefile.
Next step: Once your project area is defined, head to Step 2 to explore your layout.
