An anemometer measures the wind speed, and a windvan measures wind direction.

An Anemometer measures the wind speed and the Wind Vane measures the direction of the wind.
The Anemometer measures wind speed, not wind direction. Wind Direction is measured by the wind vane.
Weather vane measures wind direction.
An anemometer is the instrument that measures wind direction using a wind vane.
wind vane
A weather vane is an instrument that measures wind direction by pointing in the direction from which the wind is blowing. It typically consists of a rotating arrow attached to a fixed base, allowing it to align itself with the wind.
It shows the direction where the wind is coming from. Like the North, South, East or west. Weather vane or wind vane does not measure anything, it just shows the direction the wind is out of, a wind monitor measures the force the wind is blowing, in mph or kph. Wind vanes indicate wind direction and when this information is recorded, describes the direction FROM which the wind is blowing. Wind vanes measure the direction in which the wind is blowing. anemometer The direction the wind is blowing from. So it measures wind direction.
