Anemometer Wind Speed Sensor

Post by thethk »

We are going to use anemometer mentioned above in one of our projects of deploying IoT at schools.
Please could you confirm if this device has been calibrated?
We also would like to request you to let us know how we can calibrate it in our site again.

Thank you.

The manufacturer's specifications are for accuracy within 1m/s. We don't have any details on the factory test conditions and procedures. For critical measurements, I always calibrate: https://learn.adafruit.com/calibrating-sensors

Anemometer calibration is typically done in a wind-tunnel.

It is also possible to do this with a car:
