The AERosol Imaging Airborne Lidar (AERIAL) is an airborne lidar system. It measures lidar backscatter to determine aerosol optical properties such as aerosol optical depth. It operates mainly at the 1064 nm wavelength, but it can be modified to operate at 532 nm wavelength as well. AERIAL provides 1-second average observations at a sampling rate of 50 MHz. It has a vertical resolution of about 3 meters.
