Anemometer Siting Guidelines

• For best results, place the anemometer at least 7' (2.1 m) above surrounding 

obstructions such as trees or buildings that obstruct wind flow.

• If mounting on a roof, mount the anemometer at least 7' (2.1 m) above the roof 

apex. (When using a Davis Mounting Tripod, install the anemometer at the very 
top of the pole).

• If mounting the ISS and the anemometer together, such as on a pole or a wooden 

post, mount the anemometer so it is at least 12'' (0.3 m) above the top of the rain 
collector cone for best results.

• The standard for meteorological and aviation applications is to place the 

anemometer 33' (10 m) above the ground. Seek professional help for this type of 
installation.

• The standard for 

agricultural applications 

is to place the anemometer 6' (2 m) 

above the ground. This is important for evapotranspiration (ET) calculations.

Note: 

For roof mounting, and ease of installation, we recommend using the optional mounting 
tripod (#7716). For other installations, use the Mounting Pole Kit (#7717).

Note: 

For more detailed siting suggestions, see Application Note #30: Reporting Quality 
Observations to NOAA on http://www.davisnet.com/resources.

Optional: Cable Length Considerations

• All Vantage Pro2 stations include a 

40' (12 m) cable to go between the 
ISS and the anemometer. This can 
be extended up to 540' (165 m) 
using optional extension cables 
purchased from Davis Instruments. 
If most of the anemometer cable 
length is unused, the coiled cable 
length can be stowed once the 
anemometer and ISS have been 
installed on a site. You can secure 
the cable to the pole using the 
shorter cable ties. Use the longer 
cable tie to secure the coil by 
running it through the holes on the 
rain collector shelf.
Keep the anemometer cable coiled 
if possible during the ISS and 
anemometer assembly so that it is 
easily stowed once installation is 
complete.

• The Cabled Vantage Pro2 includes a 100' (30 m) cable to go between the console 

and the ISS. This can be extended up to 1000' (300 m) using optional cables.
