Pressure is a very accurate way to measure volume. The reason that temperature can affect the reading is as the air in the tube that goes to the pressure sensor gets warm the pressure in the tube increases. Here is a video using pressure sensors to measure volume.

Sure its accurate if you know the density of the liquid. But if its unknown? Or approximate? Like I said in an above post, you could easily be off by 3/4 of a gallon or more.
