URI: http://codes.wmo.int/wmdr/ObservedVariableAtmosphere/12006
Commonly refers to the speed of horizontal wind, a ratio of the horizontal distance covered by the air to the time taken to cover that distance. This scalar quantity can be used to represent a value at a given location and an instantaneous time or average over spatio-temporal extent or values as a function of spatio-temporal coordinates.
