LIDAR-Pollution Monitoring of the Atmosphere

  • Conference paper
Laser/Optoelektronik in der Technik / Laser/Optoelectronics in Engineering

Abstract

A mobile lidar system has been developed since 1985 at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Lausanne by our group. The system’s performance allows both immission and emission measurements of four main air pollutants: sulfur dioxide, nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide and ozone [1–4].
