Anemometer trees, and both natural canyons and artificial canyons (urban buildings). The standard anemometer height in open rural terrain is 10 meters. Anemometer An anemometer is a device used for measuring wind speed, and is also a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word "anemos", which means wind, and is used to describe any wind speed instrument used in meteorology. The first known description of an anemometer was given by Leon Battista Alberti in 1450. The anemometer has changed little since its development in the 15th century. Leon Battista Alberti (1404–1472) is said to have invented
Banach measure Banach measure In mathematics, Banach measure in measure theory may mean a real-valued function on an algebra of all subsets of a set (for example, all subsets of the plane), by means of which a rigid, finitely additive area can be defined for every set, even when a set does not have a true geometric area. That is, this is a type of generalized measure getting around the phenomenon of non-measurable sets. However, as the Vitali set shows, it cannot be countably additive. A Banach measure on a set Ω is a finite measure μ ≠ 0 on P(Ω), the
