Airmar 200WX Waterproof WeatherStation Instrument NMEA 0183 / 2000

Your best choice for mobile, land-based, weather-monitoring applications

Knowing the theoretical wind speed and direction is important and often mission-critical. The Airmar 200WX Waterproof WeatherStation calculates the theoretical wind speed and direction based upon the apparent wind (the wind you would feel on your hand if you held it out while moving), speed of the vehicle, and vehicle heading. Its internal 10 Hz GPS and three-axis electronic compass provide heading, position, speed-over-ground, and course-over-ground functionality that is necessary for theoretical wind-data processing on a moving vehicle.

The 3D compass with dynamic stabilisation provided by the three-axis rate gyro enhances the rate-of-turn data. The patented 200WX maintains dynamic compass performance in hilly and mountainous terrain—common in military situations.
