Lidar system for wind measurement

The Vaisala WindCube Scan 200s

The Vaisala Windcube Scan 200s is a pulsed double lidar (Light Detection And Ranging) that enables the determination of the radial wind speed in a targeted volume. This three-dimensional laser scanning technology is similar to that of a radar and allows the remote measurement of atmospheric parameters.

Data:

  • Wake vortices, wind profiles and much more can be measured at heights of up to 3 km
  • All-year outdoor operation possible
  • Data transmission via mobile radio
