belfortinstrument.com is a global leader in environmental measurement technologies.
With products in use around the world, from the United States to Germany to Pakistan and beyond, Belfort Instrument Company stands as a global leader in environmental measurement technologies. The firm produces meteorological instruments used by the National Weather Service, aviators, and anyone else in need of accurate, up-to-date measurements of the weather. Belfort Instrument Company was established in 1876 and has been extensively involved in mission-critical applications from the start. The Wright Brothers utilized the firm's wind sensors at Kitty Hawk, and Belfort instruments aided in early moon mapping endeavors. Today, the firm's instruments play a vital role in both civil and military aviation.
The company was a pioneer in the development of automated weather observation systems, and it continues to develop innovative environmental measurement technologies. In the 1990s, the National Weather Service announced that it intended to automate its surface weather observation systems. Belfort responded to the challenge by designing and developing three sensors for the Automated Surface Observing System. These sensors have since been installed at more than 1,200 locations worldwide and have had a profound impact on system efficiency, as well as the quality and accuracy of regular observations.
Belfort Instrument Company serves clients in the aviation, maritime, professional meteorology, and highway safety markets.
