In road and railway tunnels the measurement of wind data is also essential as the restricted space increases the danger of an incident. In larger tunnels extraction fans are used to control the wind flow within the tunnel. If a fire occurs inside the tunnel wind measurements made by anemometers are used to create zero wind conditions in the area of the incident to prevent the spread of fire. For transport safety applications, the Gill WindSonic or WindObserverII ultrasonic anemometers are often used. These 2-axis anemometers provide accurate and reliable wind speed and direction measurement data without the need for constant maintenance. Transport Safety Application Images

Transport Safety
In transport safety, wind data has an important role. Road and railway weather stations measure wind speed and direction. In road applications this is essential for high-sided vehicles.
