The Langley Research Center Fourteen-Inch Lidar System (LaRCFILS) is a ground-based lidar system operated by the LaRC Aerosol Research Branch. It was originally designed as an airborne lidar, but has since been reconfigured for ground-based operations. It is a dual-polarization lidar used to collect backscatter measurements to determine cloud and aerosol optical properties. LaRCFILS operates at the 532 nm wavelength and has a range resolution of 37.5 m.
