Proposed Partial Amendment to the "Public Notification of Standards, Methods and Application Procedure for Type Approval of Meteorological Instruments"; (75 page(s), in Korean)

The Korea Meteorological Administration proposes partial amendment to the Public Notification of Standards, Methods and Application Procedure for Type Approval of Meteorological Instruments.

The Proposed Amendment

- adds a sea water thermometer to the detailed standards for type approval of electronic thermometers and their test methods;

- specifies that performance tests can be conducted only with a weather sensor, if the output of a weather sensor is a pulse, or if the observation values after digital signal processing can be checked immediately; and

- adds the standards for the ratio of collected observations to stability tests under the detailed standards for type approval of snow-depth sensors and their test methods.
