Variable Description

Variable: Vector Average Wind Speed
Units m/s
Description The reported values for this measurement take into account the wind direction. For example, if there is a north wind at 5 knots and a south wind at 15 knots, the scalar averaged wind speed would be 5 knots (a south wind, but that's not part of the wind speed).
