  • Provides Slant Visual Range (SVR), a more accurate reflection of pilot’s visibility compared to Runway Visual Range
  • Provides 3D cloud base (total ceiling), instead of cloud height at a single point like a regular ceilometer
  • Remotely detects incoming fog banks, helping forecasters formulate early warning scenarios
  • Provides detection of volcanic ash, natural dust and smoke, as an additional feature

Introducing the revolution in remote observation on the atmosphere (clouds, volcanic ash, etc), the Raymetrics 3D Ceilometer is designed to work as a visual radar, as well as to deliver records of the radiation that is backscattered in the components of the atmosphere (molecules, aerosols, clouds, etc.)

Traditional LIDAR systems are designed to produce single wavelength backscatter measurement, however, this is not enough in many cases. Unlike other ceilometers, Raymetrics 3D Ceilometer is the only system to provide accurate three dimensional, scientific-grade precision measurements with a range up to 15Km
