  1. European manufacturer of Lidars for Environmental Observations Laurent Sauvage, Chief scientist, september 2010, WMO, Geneva

  2. Climate Change / Atmospheric research Atmospheric Pollution Airport Safety Wind Farming Meteorology One atmosphere, many hazards Volcano-logy Aerosol lidars Wind lidars Real time atmospheric remote observations

  3. Corporate ID • Established 2004 • 53 people • Optoelectronics / AtmosphericPhysicists / Software engineers • Partnershipswith CEA/LSCE, IPSL, ONERA • 95% sales non domestic • Turnover : ’08-4.7M€, ‘09-7M€,’10-??M€

  4. Global Network 150 lidars units deployed

  5. Polarisation Lidar for Aerosol Research and advisory system (N2 Raman option)

  6. Potential contribution to GALION • Hdf Format, compatible with MPLNET format. • We promote the continuous vertical monitoring and give new customers a contact to main research networks (ex. Juëlich, RISOE, ETZH in Europe, Hongkong , NPL India and Indoniesan Met bureau for 7’seas ) • Participate to QA effort for the ALS • Specific support for some stations (but not permanent, will need extra funding) • Providing ezsunphotometer coupling software for a better calibration NOT GOOD FOR CLIMATE MONITORING GOOD FOR CLIMATE OBSERVATIONS 20 potential sites Some co-located with sunphotometers Chibolton obs., univ. Reading Air quality monitoring in a metro station
