    A simple 'speedometer style' directional bearing indicator is available here: https://pisquare.osisoft.com/community/developers-club/pi-visualization-development/blog/2017/10/04/pi-vision-2017-compass-gauge-symbol
    This seems deal to show instantaneous wind direction. PI Vision should include something similar (with scale and zero-offset options). But this is not a 'wind rose'. A wind rose is used to visualise historical wind data. A good example is here: https://www.highcharts.com/demo/polar-wind-rose/dark-unica
    Again, PI Vision should include something similar.

    There are no tools in PI vision to visually represent something that rotates on a 360 degree plane. The Radial Gauge gets you close but cannot accurately represent feedback from a tool that rotates 360 degrees. We would need to be able to define direction 0 degrees is with respect to the page and the scale of the item being represented by the tool. For instance, a vertical pipe racker has a 360 degree slew where 0 degrees is forward with respect to the ship on an offshore drilling platform. It would be nice to visually represent that on an available gauge in PI Vision.

    I need a wind rose for a site dust monitoring application so a symbol as per the HighCharts wind rose would be fantastic. In addition I need to be able to create a "dust" rose, which will chart dust by wind direction, as per a wind rose

    In response to Jesse Ru, "I assume that you are asking for a Wind ..."
    I raised it in a presentation :-)
     
    Anyway, here are several discussions about the need of a PI Vision component which looks like a windrose.
    I would also add that the wr should have two arrows. One inner Arrow which may show direction of a nacelle and an outer arrow
    showning actual wind direction.
    The component itself need an angel attribute because 0° is not everytime at 12o'clock.
     
    If you have an example i can use as a blueprint, i will dev. such device once i understood how it works.

    I assume that you are asking for a Wind Rose Diagram in Vision.  Is that correct?

    If this is implemented, it should be made as generic as possible to allow this style of display to be used for n variables in y states that may not necessarily be compass points.
