The Carbon Dioxide Laser Absorption Spectrometer (CO2LAS) is an airborne remote sensing spectrometer developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and Lockheed Martin Coherent Technologies. It measures carbon dioxide (CO2) column mixing ratios by utilizing the Integrated Path Differential Absorption (IPDA) lidar technique. It operates at 2.05 μm wavelength and has a field of view of 60 μrad.
