Radiometric Calibration of a Dual-Wavelength, Full-Waveform Terrestrial Lidar
Radiometric calibration of the Dual-Wavelength Echidna(®) Lidar (DWEL), a full-waveform terrestrial laser scanner with two simultaneously-pulsing infrared lasers at 1064 nm and 1548 nm, provides accurate dual-wavelength apparent reflectance (ρ(app)), a physically-defined value that is related to the radiative and structural characteristics of scanned targets and independent of range and instrum...
متن کاملAn Architecture Providing Depolarization Ratio Capability for a Multi-Wavelength Raman Lidar: Implementation and First Measurements
A new architecture for the measurement of depolarization produced by atmospheric aerosols with a Raman lidar is presented. The system uses two different telescopes: one for depolarization measurements and another for total-power measurements. The system architecture and principle of operation are described. The first experimental results are also presented, corresponding to a collection of atmo...
متن کاملDesign, construction and calibration of single channel sun-photometer for study of aerosols
Aerosols are tiny liquid or solid particles suspended in the air have a strong influence on air quality, human health and climate change. Sun-photometer is a tool for measuring the optical and physical characteristics of aerosols by using sunlight at various wavelengths from the Earth surface. In this paper, the design, construction, and calibration of a single channel sun-photometer is present...
متن کاملLidar Calibration Centre
This paper presents the newly established Lidar Calibration Centre, a distributed infrastructure in Europe, whose goal is to offer services for complete characterization and calibration of lidars and ceilometers. Mobile reference lidars, laboratories for testing and characterization of optics and electronics, facilities for inspection and debugging of instruments, as well as for training in goo...
متن کاملReexamination of depolarization in lidar measurements.
Almost all of the depolarization papers in the lidar literature employ a physically inappropriate notation and they use a definition of the depolarization ratio that is not linear in the quantity of interest. This depolarization lidar legacy is misleading and confusing. In particular, subscripts meaning parallel and perpendicular do not apply to atmospheric parameters, such as the volume backsc...
