vind i forhold til
Not sure about the context here, but if we're talking about the wind relative to a boat, then "vindhastighet i forhold til båten", or "seilvind" are commonly used in Norwegian.
In another context, perhaps "relativ" vind, vindstyrke or vindhastighet would work?
In another context, perhaps "relativ" vind, vindstyrke or vindhastighet would work?

Sann vind
Innenfor båtmiljøet brukes ofte uttrykket sann vind for å måle vindhastigheten.
Example sentence:
SHIP-meldingene gir, i tillegg til meteorologiske data, opplysninger om båtens posisjon, hastighet og seileretning (slik at sann vind kan beregnes korrekt).

: Nei, sann vind er den faktiske vindretningen, som er uavhengig av båtens fart, true wind på engelsk: http://www.deniswee.net/ApparentWind/trueapp.htm
