The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks.
The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
An anemometer measures wind speed. On the other hand, a wind vein is used to determine the direction of the wind.
Speed: anemometer. Direction: wind vane
No. A wind vane is an instrument that can tell wind speed but not wind direction.
Speed: anemometer.Direction: wind- or weather-vane, which for accurate readings would havesome form of angle sensor.The two are sometimes used together as an aerovane.Another common device is the "wind sock," an orange cloth cone used to indicatecrosswinds at airports and heliports. Within a range of speeds, the cone indicateswind direction, and it gives a general idea of the wind speed from the inflation ofthe cone by the wind.
Thermometer: Measures the temperature of the atmosphere. Anemometer: Measures wind speed and direction. Barometer: Measures atmospheric pressure to help forecast weather changes. Hygrometer: Measures humidity in the air. Weather vane: Indicates the direction from which the wind is blowing.

An anemometer is the instrument that measures wind direction using a wind vane.
Anemometer
An anemometer measures wind speed. On the other hand, a wind vein is used to determine the direction of the wind.
Anemometer: measures wind speed. Barometer: measures atmospheric pressure. Hygrometer: measures humidity. Thermometer: measures temperature.

An anemometer measures wind velocity.
In a car, a speedometer. At a weather station, an anemometer measures wind speed.
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
No, a barometer measures air pressure. Though wind is caused by variances in air pressure the direct measurement of wind is done by an anemometeryes
The instrument to measure wind resistance is called an anemometer or wind-meter. It is a common instrument used in weather stations.
The name of this instrument is anemometer.
