Something to keep in mind is that portolan chart navigation maps like Piri Reis don't a have coordinate system, rather they are several different local coordinate systems munged together -- each one of the rosettas or compass rose like symbols is a projection source of origin, loosely speaking.
So you can't just georeference the image in the usual GIS way ...

This best resource for publicly available data is going to be from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, but that isn't going to cover all the altitudes you are looking for. NREL wind data page
NREL's data is based on a model developed by AWS Truepower, which sells a more comprehensive dataset, but I don't know if it will cover everything you need. AWS ...
