THE IMPORTANCE OF MONITORING THE WIND

Most of us are familiar with anemometers and wind vanes.  These instruments are used around the world by environmental protection agencies and air quality management authorities.  Wind sensors are often used to protect the health and human safety of nearby residents.

In a recent example from our customer ICT International in Armidale, Australia; wind measurements from a Met Station One were integrated with the computer network of a Sydney elementary school.

The result was a wind alarm system designed to alert students, faculty and staff of high winds on the playground and prevent injuries from falling branches.

We love to see our products in use and hear about the unique ways technology is improving our lives.
