Summary
Abstract: This sensor measures the hydrostatic (water column) pressure exerted on the sensor resulting from the pressure of water above its position and the atmospheric air pressure acting on the sea surface. Whether it is not possible to use a vented reference to equalise the offset due to atmospheric pressure, the true water level is obtained from the APG by measuring and subtracting the atmospheric pressure at the sea surface from the APG measurement.
