The model 150WX calculates the theoretical wind speed and direction based upon the apparent wind, speed of the vehicle/vessel, and vehicle/vessel heading. Theoretical wind speed and direction is significant for numerous applications and is often mission-critical. The WeatherStation 150WX has been integrated into a mobile agriculture OEM platform and enabled several mobile agriculture after-market solution providers to enhance their solutions.
