Summary
Lidar systems for air condition detection and air pollution control.
Description
Lidar systems provide real time measuring of background and elevated concentrations of detected gases in the atmosphere, and solving air pollution control tasks that arise from transport and industrial discharges.
Technology type
Technical advantages and economic benefits
Lidars enable measurements of concentration of the majority of natural and anthropogene aerosols and gases (NH3, C2H3, O3, CO, NO, NO2 and others) with spatial resolution about 50 m and distance about 35 km as well as direction and speed of wind, air density, pressure and temperature up and down distribution.
