Detailed Description

template<typename Scalar>
struct vulcan::wind::WindVector< Scalar >

3D wind velocity in NED frame

Wind components represent the velocity of the air mass relative to the Earth. Positive North = wind blowing from South to North Positive East = wind blowing from West to East Positive Down = wind blowing upward (rare, usually near-zero)
