A rain gauge (also known as an udometer, pluviometer, or an ombrometer) is a type of instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation over a set period of time.
History
The first known rainfall records were kept by the Ancient Greeks, about 500 B.C. About 400 B.C. people in India also began to record rainfall. The readings were correlated against expected growth, and used as a basis for land taxes. In the Arthashastra, used for example in Magadha, precise standards were set as to grain production. Each of the state storehouses were equipped with a rain gauge to classify land for taxation purposes.
In 1441, the Cheugugi was invented during the reign of King Sejong the Great of the Joseon Dynasty in Korea as the first standardized rain gauge. In 1662, Christopher Wren created the first tipping-bucket rain gauge in Britain in collaboration with Robert Hooke. Hooke also designed a manual gauge with a funnel that made measurements throughout 1695.

CoCoRaHS Tutorial - How the rain gauge works
This short video explains how the CoCoRaHS rain gauge works. By watching this video you will learn how to read rainfall measurements to the nearest 1/100th of an inch, and also how to accurately measure rainfall that is more than 1 inch. Participating with "CoCoRaHS for Schools" allows students to use a real scientific instrument and contribute real data that scientists and TV meteorologists use every day!

Learn How to Measure Rainfall
This video for students explains how we measure rainfall using a rain gauge.
We use length units to measure rain, as a measure of the average depth of water over the surface of the ground.
Appropriate units for this are inches and fractions of an inch, or millimetres in the metric system of measurement.

Water will directly enter this yantra. Come and fall so that the amount of rain can be measured accurately.

वर्षा मापने के लिए एक विशेष प्रकार के यंत्र का प्रयोग किया जाता है, जिसे रेन गेज मीटर (साइमन्स रेन गेज मीटर) नाम दिया गया है। आमतौर पर इस यंत्र को खुले और ऊंचे स्थान पर स्थापित किया जाता है। यंत्र को रखने के लिए जिस स्थान का चयन किया जाता है, उसका ध्यान रखा जाता है कि उसके चारों ओर कोई ऊंची दीवार न हो, ऐसा करने के पीछे विशेष कारण यह है कि किसी भी वस्तु से टकराने की बजाय वर्षा हो जाती है। इस यंत्र में पानी सीधे प्रवेश करेगा। आओ और गिरो ताकि बारिश की मात्रा को सटीक रूप से मापा जा सके।
