Measurement Definitions
Wind Speed - Gust
Cup revolutions accumulated every three seconds for the duration of the logging interval. Wind speed is the average speed for the entire logging interval. Gust speed is the highest 3 second wind recorded during the logging interval.
Wind Direction
Vector components of wind direction are accumulated every 3 seconds for duration of logging interval. Average direction is calculated from the sum of the vector components every logging interval.
