Application of Cabauw Lidar Data for Campaigns, New Methodology Development and Satellite Validation Activities

Abstract

Cabauw lidar data were used for the development of several new methods, as well as in the validation of new techniques based on other sensor data. The potential of the site that is equipped with a suite of in-situ and remote sensing equipment provides the possibility to develop new methods, and test them using independent observations. Examples are shown for several recent campaigns conducted at the site, new methods developed using lidar data, and for satellite validation, including preparation for future missions.
