AIRMAR® Technology Corporation is a world-leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of high-performance ultrasonic industrial, marine and survey transducers, and ultrasonic WeatherStation® multisensors.
Our best-in-class WeatherStation instruments are rugged, maintenance-free ultrasonic multisensors that meet the growing need for real-time, site-specific weather information.
These compact, all-in-one weather sensors with no moving parts can measure apparent wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, air temperature, relative humidity, calculated heat index, dew point, and wind chill. WeatherStation models with internal compass and GPS can also uniquely calculate heading, position, speed-over-ground, and dynamic true wind speed and direction on mobile platforms.
Dynamic true wind is the wind relative to North but also corrected for the speed and direction of the vessel. Airmar’s WeatherStation instruments integrate a GPS and 3-axis compass which allows for the calculation of dynamic true wind speed and direction based upon the apparent wind, speed of the vehicle, and vehicle heading. Dynamic true wind measurement can be critical for any application where the platform is moving
Whether chasing tornados, spraying crops or offshore surveying, Airmar WeatherStation instruments reliably deliver the accurate data needed to make the most informed decisions.
Weather parameters measured:
- Apparent wind speed and angle
- Dynamic true wind speed and direction
- Barometric pressure
- Air temperature plus calculated wind chill
- GPS position, speed over ground, and course over ground
- Relative humidity (RH) (field serviceable option)
- Calculated dew point and heat index
- Rate-of-turn
- Pitch and roll
