An anemometer is an instrument for measuring wind force and velocity. A weather vane tells you what direction the wind is coming from and it also tells you if you are going in the right direction
The anemometer measures wind speed. A weather vane tells wind direction.
Weather vane is for direction and anemometer is for speed
To measure the direction of wind, a wind vane can be an ideal tool. A windsock can also be used to measure the direction and strength of the wind.

Anemometers measure wind speed, wind vanes tell the direction from which the wind is coming.A wind vane measures the direction of the wind.An anemometer measures the speed of the wind.A wind vane tells you which direction the wind is blowing, the anemometer tells you the speed.
Anemometer measures the speed or velocity of the wind. a weather vane or wind vane more properly mererly gives the direction and this has to be corrected-Out of the South, so to speak.
Wind Direction.A weather vane tells the direction of the wind. If paired with an anemometer it tells the speed of the wind as well as the direction the wind is blowing.
A wind vane measures wind direction, however if you are seeking speed of the wind, you would also use an anemometer. The weather stations today would normally have both the wind vane and the anemometer.
An Anemometer measures the wind speed and the Wind Vane measures the direction of the wind.
