Tipping Bucket? Impact? Optical? Doppler radar? How can you know which rain measurement technology is the best for your weather station? Whether you just need to know if it rained and the track is wet, or when the rain began, or whether it is rain or snow, the different technologies each have their advantages. • The Orion Weather Station's impact rain gauge requires no maintenance and is able to detect hail. • Tipping bucket rain gauges are the most widely used in the world. • The Pulsar's Doppler radar precipitation sensor is the fastest responding with resolution of 0.01 mm.
