DESCRIPTION:

Sir Francis Beaufort, the inventor of the Beaufort wind force scale, was born May 27, 1774. His device measures wind force without the use of special instruments. He created it whilst serving as a Royal Navy officer on HMS Woolwich in 1805. The Beaufort Scale was used in shipping forecasts for England and adapted for international use in 1874. Today it is used by Netherlands, Germany, China, Malta, Greece and Taiwan.

Though other methods of measuring wind were devised in years prior, Sir Beaufort standardized it to capture wind speeds of 22 knots to 64 knots.
