Cloud Lidar

Cloud Lidar is a remote sensing instrument system that uses laser radar technology to profile atmospheric cloud structure and properties by measuring the backscattered light from cloud particles, distinguished from other sensing methods by its high vertical resolution and sensitivity to thin or low-reflectivity clouds.
