Abstract
The invention relates to a flow measuring instrument which ascertains the water level of a watercourse, the flow rate of the watercourse at a specific location, and the wind velocity at the location of the measuring instrument, and these three measurement data are incorporated in the calculation of the average flow rate of the watercourse and/or of the calculation of the flow. By taking the wind velocity above the watercourse into consideration, calculation of the flow can be improved.
