Baseline VAP, Guest

The Doppler Lidar Wind (DLPROF-WIND) value-added product calculates profiles of horizontal winds from plan position indicator scans that are performed several times per hour. These wind measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer are particularly important for modeling pollutant and aerosol transport. DLPROF-WIND was previously known as the Doppler Lidar Horizontal Wind Profiles product.
