  skos:definition """The purpose of the Wind Scatterometer is to obtain information
on wind speed and direction at the sea surface. These wind
vectors can then be incorporated into models, global statistics
and climatological data sets. The Wind Scatterometer measures
the echo power of a signal transmitted by the satellite and
returned from the ocean surface. The echo power is affected by
the surface wind conditions. Three antennae are used to obtain
information about the wind at the ocean surface. Each antenna
points in a different direction, and hence for a particular
point on the ocean surface three echo power values, obtained
from three different angles, are used to calculate the surface
wind vectors.
