15.5 VISIBILITY SENSOR ACCURACY: WHAT’S REALISTIC? 能见度传感器的精度：什么是真实的？ John D. Crosby* EnviroTech Sensors, Inc. Clarksville, Maryland 1. INTRODUCTION 1. 介绍 Improvements in forward scatter-type visibility sensors in the past decade have resulted in a growing 在过去的十年向前散射类的能见度传感器的改进 interest in automating this important meteorological 使这个重要的气象参数在自动测报上不断成长。能见 parameter. Applications for visibility sensing include airport 度传感的应用包括：机场气象系统（气象和跑道视 weather systems (synoptic and runway visual range), road weather systems, air quality studies, and fog warning 程）、公路气象系统、空气质量研究、和烟雾报警网 networks. 络。 Visibility sensing differs from many of the typical 因为能见度传感测量的是复杂的自然状态，所以 meteorological parameters because of the complex nature of the measurement. No standard test methods or 它不同于其它典型的气象参数。对于能见度，没有标 measurement practices are available for visibility. Other 准的测试方法或测量实践可用。然而其它传感器有着 sensors, however, are held to rigorous standards. For 严格的标准。举几个例子，用美国社会测试和材料 example, a temperature sensor is tested to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E644-98 Standard （ASTM）测试工业电阻的标准方法E644-98测试一个温 Test Methods for Testing Industrial Resistance 度传感器，执行ASTM的标准做法6176M-97通过电抗温 Thermometers, implemented with ASTM D6176M-97 度传感器（公制）来测量大气表面温度，以及来源于 Standard Practice for Measuring Surface Atmospheric Temperature with Electrical Resistance Temperature 国家科学和技术研究院（NIST）的标准。 Sensors (Metric) and traceable to standards at the National 能见度工业标准的短缺导致了几个问题，包括： Institute of Sc
