The Halo Doppler Lidar is a ground-based Doppler wind lidar developed by Halo Photonics. It measures 1.5-micron lidar backscatter to retrieve boundary layer wind profiles. It can also determine aerosol loading and turbulence. It has a maximum range of 10 km and a vertical resolution of 18 to 60 m, depending on profiling needs. Halo Doppler Lidar has a pulse rate of 10 kHz and a sampling rate of 1 Hz.
