WindRose PRO3
Analyze wind and other directional variables from raw observations or frequency tables, then create publication-ready plots and specialized engineering statistics.
Directional frequencies, raw data, circular statistics, filtering, and export.

Directional intelligence
Summarize large datasets without losing their structure.
A wind rose condenses direction and magnitude into one visual. WindRose PRO3 extends that concept to arbitrary directional variables, third variables, time filters, and engineering calculations.
Load observations or precomputed frequencies, define sectors and classes, filter by date and time, then produce customizable charts and numerical summaries. The software supports meteorological modeling files, airport observations, energy datasets, spreadsheets, and general delimited data.
