To effectively monitor the weather, understanding the wind—its speed, direction, intensity, and movement—is crucial. Anemoment LLC (now part of LI-COR Environmental) developed the TriSonica Mini Wind and Weather Sensor to capture wind movements in three dimensions using ultrasonic acoustic wave pulses.
The TriSonica Mini’s compact size, lightweight design, low power consumption, and absence of moving parts make it ideal for a variety of weather monitoring applications, including micrometeorology, atmospheric profiling, boundary layer studies, and methane monitoring, among others. Read more >>
Weather researchers reportedly embraced the advantages that the sensor offered over traditional, bulkier cup-and-vane anemometers.
Due to its small size, practical design, and precise measurements, the TriSonica Mini Wind and Weather Sensor is an ideal fit for weather stations like the Njord. The Njord is a portable, self-contained weather station that monitors conditions in a specific area, providing real-time data on multiple meteorological parameters along with a live video feed.
Initially designed for the Swedish Sea Rescue Society to enhance their existing weather applications, the Njord is aimed at reducing boating incidents caused by adverse weather or insufficient weather information.
The Njord gathers weather data, which is distributed via a software application. Users can select the specific information they need, with options to access either national weather station reports or real-time local weather data from a specific Njord unit. Portable, flexible, robust, and reliable, the Njord was designed for easy transport and deployment to any location.
The TriSonica Mini Wind and Weather Sensor can easily be installed on the Njord without requiring any design changes. The benefits of the TriSonica Mini have further advanced the development of the Njord system, allowing it to fully leverage the sensor’s unique capabilities.
