Hydrometry. Specification for a reference raingauge pit

BS EN 13798:2010 Hydrometry. Specification for a reference raingauge pit

BS EN 13798 is a European Standard which specifies the design of a reference raingauge pit. The reference raingauge pit is designed for the liquid precipitation only. The specified details of the pit and the grating, are purposely kept to a minimum in order to allow each raingauge operator latitude in their construction and to suit local conditions.
