Description

The Datawell Directional Waverider Mk3 Buoy hardly needs any introduction. It is the world’s standard for measuring wave height and wave direction. Its success is due to the proprietary well proven and accurate Datawell stabilized platform sensor, enabling wave height measurements by a single accelerometer. For the wave direction, direct pitch and roll measurements are performed needing no integration. In combination with horizontal accelerometers and a compass this forms the complete sensor unit, the heart of the instrument.
