The MATLAB data file “wind_speed_2015_2016_10minutely.mat” was obtained based on the original wind speed data downloaded from "Iowa Environmental Mesonet: AWOS Network Database" at the localities of Le Mars, Orange City, and Sheldon in Iowa, USA, recorded from 2015 to 2016. The raw data set has varying resolution, ranging from 5 to 10 min per sample. A fraction of missing measurements were filled in by interpolation. The resulting data-set was then re-sampled at a fixed rate of 10 min per sample, resulting in 105120 data points for each location.
