Description
Qualify an explicit station wind-measurement height by supplied datum wording.
Atmospheric values depend on pressure order, vertical datums, moisture definitions and reference conditions. Specific humidity uses moist-air mass as its denominator, whereas mixing ratio uses dry-air mass. A pressure-order flag differs from a temperature inversion, and a logarithmic-pressure weight can represent extrapolation.
Qualify an explicit station wind-measurement height by supplied datum wording.
When to use this tool
Use Station Wind Height Reference Label when you already have stationId, heightText, datumWording and need to qualify an explicit station wind-measurement height by supplied datum wording.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter stationId, heightText, datumWording. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Enter stationId, heightText, datumWording using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |

| datumWording | Datum Wording | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |

| token | Token | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
{
"input": {
"stationId": "ST17",
"heightText": "10 m",
"datumWording": "above ground"
},
"output": {
"token": "[\"ST17\",\"10 m\",\"above ground\"]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The result records supplied values without adjusting wind speed. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use calibrated profile and station data with the complete atmospheric model. Preserve datum, humidity and pressure conventions and assess uncertainty before interpreting local terms as an observed layer, state or forecast.
