This educational activity shows how wind speed and direction are measured at varying altitudes, and includes the Beaufort Scale.

The lesson explains that data from instruments are used to predict weather and model climate. Pilots use wind data to fly and land planes safely. Wind turbines are placed in windy areas to generate power. Some instruments measure speed or direction, while other instruments measure both.
