It kinda depends on how flexible you need to be. Are the tags ever in a different order? Is the format EXACTLY as given? Are the numbers always integers?
Something as simple as this could work:
sscanf(s, 'Temp : %f, Altitude : %f, Pressure : %f')
[EDIT] Oh, sorry, you said "strings":
regexp(s, ':\s*(\d+),.*:\s*(\d+),.*:\s*(\d+)', 'tokens')
