The Skywatch Atmos is designed specifically for the agricultural and scientific markets. Wind speed, temperature, and relative humidity are measured. Windchill and dewpoint are calculated on the Atmos. This unit is by far the best device for measuring windspeed, temperature, and humidity. It is simple to use, accurate, and dependable. The hygrometer never needs calibration, maintaining its high accuracy over the life of the product.
