The wind turbulence prediction system according to the present invention provides a measurement system, which is capable of measuring three-dimensional wind turbulence, exhibits limited aerodynamic and structural effects when mounted on an aircraft, is capable of measurement even in cases in which the velocity is equal to or less than 20 to 30 m/s, at which velocity a Pitot tube is incapable of measurement, and even in cases where the air flow direction differs greatly from the axis of aircraft body, and does not produce an error resulting from disruption of the air flow by the aircraft body itself. The wind turbulence prediction system of the present invention adopts a system that measures the speed of remote three-dimensional air flow by mounting a laser wind speed indicator utilizing the Doppler effect on an aircraft, irradiating laser light while scanning same in a cone shape, and then receiving scattered light from wind turbulence regions forward of an aircraft body in flight. Also, by considering the effects on the aircraft body exerted by a vertical wind and a fore and aft wind, measured three-dimensional air flow information is converted to a vertical wind alone and then displayed in simplified form in two dimensions, and wind turbulence is expressed through breakdown of same into turbulent flow strength and average wind.
