BHEA radiosonde with battery and attachment cord
The radiosonde is equipped with a GPS antenna and sensors to measure air temperature and humidity. The navigation data provides not only information about the position of the sonde, but also about the prevailing wind speed. The battery (next to the radiosonde and still in its packaging) is inserted into the sonde. The radiosonde is attached to a sounding balloon and sent on its measurement journey.
