Résumé

We consider the problem of reconstructing three components of wind velocity from measurement data of the radial component along directions uniformly located on the surface of a vertical cone using the least squares method. Estimates are obtained for the maximum error in the reconstruction of each component of the wind speed vector and for the mean square errors in the asymptotic approximation. Estimates are obtained taking into account the completeness of measurement data.
