The WindsP Web application supports the activities of the preparation and execution of the experiments (field campaigns) included in NEWA — New European Wind Atlas Joint Programme, in particular, the Double hill experiment at Perdigão.

WindsP supports the work of Campaign managers and participant institutions from planning and preparation to execution and dissemination of the results.

The objective of this Web application is to be a support tool for the design and management of field campaigns, and an archive of all the relevant information linked to them. Campaign participants find in WindsP the location of the stations and equipment used to collect experimental data, the list of relevant events, and the documentation produced.

WindsP includes the following functionalities:

• Collaboration intention surveys: to collect partners' intention of collaboration while building a categorization structure and involved equipment information.
• General purpose experiment information: general information that will be useful for all experiment participants, such as: location, contact, dates, topography and roughness maps.
• Collaboration intentions' summaries by experiment: one page summary of all resources for one experiment: equipment, wind flow models and personnel.
• Field stations installation and equipment: a functionality, allowing the Campaign Manager to create stations and equip the tower stations with the equipment required.¹⁾
• Equipment inventory: the data base of all the equipment by: category and manufacturer, with datasheets and manuals.
• Logbook: record of campaign events of different categories and diverse visibilities: Issue, Schedule, Installation, Social, and more.
• Document manager: management of a campaign “Dropbox” with folders and files related with the campaign.
• Timelines: management of campaign staff and equipment.
• Administrative management functionalities: management of the whole platform: user accounts, equipment, logbook events, documents, wind flow models data curation.

• Researcher: authenticated user that can access general information and manage its own account settings and profile.
• Participant: authenticated user that participates in one or more campaigns.
• Project Manager: authenticated user that manages a project, defining its experiments (field campaigns), participant institutions and corresponding managers.
• Institution Manager: authenticated user that has permission to manage the institution, for example, answer collaborations' intention surveys or add participants.
• Experiment Manager: authenticated user with access to privileged information about the experiment he or she is responsible for (such as collaborations' summaries) and is also able to manage experiment's related information (such as field station's configuration).
• Data Curator: authenticated user that has the quality control responsibilities over campaign information (e.g. equipment models or wind models).
• Administrator: authenticated user that has global platform management permissions, such as user and accounts management.

The platform functionalities are grouped in the following modules:

• Campaign Profile
• Search
• Managment dashboards
• Surveys
• Support
