Summary:According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method in connection with a radiosonde, the method comprising measuring at least a temperature, a pressure, a humidity of the atmosphere at several different altitudes, measuring or estimating a temperature of the humidity sensor, and measuring the relative humidity by a capacitor with a polymer insulator, wherein the relative humidity value is corrected based on a correction factor, which is a function of pressure, humidity sensor temperature, and relative humidity, such that the humidity value decreases when pressure decreases.
