Lidar Visibility Measurements in Italy

Abstract
This paper describes the activity of the IROE Lidar Group in the field of visibility measurements. Lidar visibility measurements were started as early as 1973 in collaboration with the DFVLR of Oberpfaffenhofen (F.R. Germany) and are still progressing as a part of the Air Traffic Control Programme of the CNR. Lidar signatures were obtained in field experiments carried out in 1974, 1976 and 1978 and different processing methods were employed in order to test their reliability. The results of such measurements are discussed in this paper.
