Udbyneder wind farm
A substantial wind farm is located on the eastern side of Jylland near the Kattegat coast. Mariager Fjord and the city of Hobro are nearby. The area of the wind farm is low-lying land drained by a network of ditches and used primarily for agricultural crops. Bright yellow fields are raps oil (canola). Other fields contain varieties of wheat, barley, and rye grains as well as hay. The wind farm includes NEG Micon and Siemens turbines positioned in a grid system.
Ramme Dige archaeological site
Ramme Dige is an archaeological complex in western Jylland that contains several burial mounds from the Neolithic (late Stone Age) and Bronze Age as well as remains of a defensive wall (dige) built during the Iron Age. Many more burial mounds once existed, but some have been removed. Nonetheless, the positions of these former mounds are clearly depicted in our images. Wind turbines are visible in the background inland from the North Sea. We conducted KAP at this site before in the autumn of 2005—see Ramme Dige.
