Windrose
The windrose above is a map used to describe wind speed in a given circumference. This map is broken off into 7 seperate windspeeds. These windspeeds are useful for air traffic controllers because they can look and see when it's safe for planes to fly into a specific area or when conditions are too rough to land or take off.
