"The purpose of this manual is to provide guidance to the U.S. IOOS and the wind-observing community at large for the real-time QC of wind speed, direction, and gust measurements using an agreed-upon, documented, and implemented standard process. This manual is also a deliverable to the U.S. IOOS Regional Associations and the ocean-observing community and represents a contribution to a collection of core variable QC documents. Wind observations covered by these test procedures are collected in coastal areas, oceans, and lakes in real time or near-real time. These tests draw from existing expertise in programs such as the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and very specifically the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Weather Service National Data Buoy Center (NOAA/NWS/NDBC)"--Page 3.
