Barometric pressure sensors (barometers) measure the air pressure. Air pressure and air temperature should be evaluated for an accurate wind site assessment, however, because this data could be obtained from nearby weather stations, they are not considered an essential part of a measuring system. Even so, barometers are worth consideration, taking into account the savings made on the expense of supply, analysis and incorporation of external data over the course of a measuring campaign (at least 12 months). We generally would recommend the inclusion of an air pressure sensor as part of a measuring system.
