    Wind sock for measuring general wind speed and wind direction; Wind vane (also called a weather vane or a weathercock) for showing the wind direction; Present Weather/Precipitation Identification Sensor for identifying falling precipitation; Disdrometer for measuring drop size distribution; Transmissometer for measuring visibility

  3. Wind speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_speed

    The fastest wind speed not related to tornadoes ever recorded was during the passage of Tropical Cyclone Olivia on 10 April 1996: an automatic weather station on Barrow Island, Australia, registered a maximum wind gust of 113.3 m/s (408 km/h; 253 mph; 220.2 kn; 372 ft/s) [6] [7] The wind gust was evaluated by the WMO Evaluation Panel, who found ...

  4. Automated airport weather station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_airport_weather...

    A majority of older automated airport weather stations are equipped with a mechanical wind vane and cup system to measure wind speed and direction. This system is simple in design: the wind spins three horizontally turned cups around the base of the wind vane, providing an estimation of the wind's speed, while the vane on top turns so that the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorological_instrumentation

    The measurements taken include temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and precipitation amounts. Wind measurements are taken as free of other obstructions as possible, while temperature and humidity measurements are kept free from direct solar radiation, or insolation. Manual observations are taken at least once ...

    More specifically, since they operate using the Doppler effect with a multi-beam configuration to determine wind speed, they are the exact in-air equivalent to a subclass of sonar systems known as acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP). Other names used for sodar systems include sounder, echosounder and acoustic radar.

  7. Wind profiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_profiler

    A wind profiler is a type of weather observing equipment that uses radar or sound waves to detect the wind speed and direction at various elevations above the ground. Readings are made at each kilometer above sea level, up to the extent of the troposphere (i.e., between 8 and 17 km above mean sea level).

  8. Rover Environmental Monitoring Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rover_Environmental...

    Wind Sensor; Humidity Sensor; The pressure sensor can detect pressures from 1 to 1150 Pa (0.000145038 PSI to 0.1667934 PSI). [11] For comparison, 1 atmosphere is 101,325 Pascals or 14.7 PSI. [12] The air temperature, wind speed and direction sensor for InSight Mars lander (planned for 2018 launch) is based on REMS, also contributed by Spain. [13]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_transducer

    A curvilinear array ultrasonic transducer for use in medical ultrasonography Inside construction of a Philips C5-2 128 element curved array ultrasound sensor. Ultrasonic transducers and ultrasonic sensors are devices that generate or sense ultrasound energy. They can be divided into three broad categories: transmitters, receivers and transceivers.
