winds-aloft plotting board
A graphical aid used in the reduction of data from a winds-aloft observation. The board is designed so that the projections of the path of a balloon as a function of azimuth may be graphed in a convenient manner. The separation of the points that correspond to the horizontal wind is read from a special measuring scale converting distance to speed.
