A method is provided for generating range-resolved wind data near a wind turbine generator coupled to a control system. The method includes measuring wind flow data in a first long range region at a distance from a rotor plane of the wind turbine generator with a laser radar. The method also includes calculating wind fields in a second short range region and blade-specific wind fields for the at least one rotating blade based upon the measured wind flow data, the second short range region being generally closer to the rotor plane of the wind turbine generator than the first long range region. The method further includes generating range-resolved wind data. A system is also provided for generating range-resolved wind data near a wind turbine generator. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium provides wind classification codes to a control system coupled to a wind turbine generator based upon range-resolved wind fields,
