Charts
Move the pointer over a chart to read it. Time is minutes from the first position stored.
Altitude
Height above sea level (m) by time since launch
Climb and Descent Rate
Vertical speed (m/s): up is positive
Temperature and Dew Point by Height
Air temperature and dew point (°C) on the way up ■ Temperature ■ Dew point
Humidity by Height
Relative humidity (%) on the way up
Wind by Height
Horizontal speed of the balloon (km/h), which is the wind that carries it
Pressure
Air pressure (hPa) by time since launch
Signal and Battery
Strength of the signal at the best station (dB) and the sonde's battery (V)
Skew-T Diagram
Temperature and Dew Point Against Pressure
The atmosphere the balloon measured on the way up: temperature (red) and dew point (blue) against pressure. Radiosonde humidity and temperature sensors are not calibrated by the receivers, so treat the values as indicative.
