Systems
Application
The System is designed for operating in the wavelength region of 1.4 to 4.2 µm, which is of prime importance as many industrial and anthropogenic pollutants of the atmosphere have absorption bands in this spectral range.
The main fields of application includes control of the natural gas emission in the atmosphere, detection and identification of atmosphere pollution by industrial installations, mapping of aerosol clouds.
