New Kind of Udometer Developed in DPRK
Pyongyang, July 26 (KCNA) -- A new kind of udometer was recently developed by the Hydro-meteorological Engineering Institute in the DPRK.

With higher accuracy than the existing ones, this rain gauge is capable of measuring all rainfall indices, especially the maximum precipitation in fixed time. It helps make observation automated and set up a real-time observation system throughout the country.

The gauge will be conducive to preventing damage from flood and downpour.
