A method of determining at least a first interface level of a first interface in a tank containing a stratified substance composition, comprising the steps of generating and transmitting an electromagnetic transmit signal; guiding the transmit signal at least partly through the stratified substance composition; returning an electromagnetic reflection signal resulting from reflection of the transmit signal; receiving, the reflection signal; determining, based on the reflection signal and a timing relation between the reflection signal and the transmit signal, an echo signal exhibiting an echo signal strength as a function of a propagation parameter indicative of position along the probe; and determining, the first interface level based on a first propagation parameter value indicative of a first threshold position for which the echo signal has reached a predetermined first threshold signal strength, and a first offset indicative of a first offset distance from the first threshold position.
