station pressure
The atmospheric pressure computed for the level of the station elevation.
This may or may not be the
same as either the climatological station pressure or the actual pressure, the difference being attributable to the difference in reference elevations. Station pressure is usually the base value from which sea level pressure and altimeter setting are determined.
