Meteorology — Air temperature measurements — Test methods for comparing the performance of thermometer shields/screens and defining important characteristics

ISO 17714:2007 defines characteristics of a thermometer shield/screen. It also defines test methods to inter-compare the behaviour of different screen designs.

Although screens are usually used for both air temperature and humidity measurements, ISO 17714:2007 is applicable only to temperature measurements.

Both naturally and artificially ventilated screens are considered.
