How does an automatic weather station measure air pressure?

How does a digital barmoeter work? What physical process is used to
acquire the pressure?

Alexmcw


Often just an aneroid can, hooked up in some way to drive something
electrical/electronic.

If you look at "section 3" of this page:

http://www.omega.com/literature/transactions/volume3/figurelist.html

you will see links to diagrams of a whole number of different pressure
measurement technologies.


Thanks. But I would also like to know what actually is being used. Who
builds the automayic weather stations?

I've got a book you may be interested in. I used it in one of my
meteorology classes as an undergrad. If you're interested, e-mail me at
dmoran21@xxxxxxx and I'll give you the title and the author.

Maybe you can give the title and author here? Thanks.
